And they would be wrong. The Bourbon County of today is a fraction of it’s size when distilleries were first put into operation in Kentucky. All the big distilleries are not in Bourbon County. You can make bourbon anywhere as long as you stick to the recipe and age it in the prescribed manner. You can even make it in Tennessee, although they prefer to call what they make Tennessee whiskey, and they filter it through charcoal.

Try it. Before the “young, trendy and hip” find out about it and the price goes through the roof.
No affront intended.
