Some people will say we are currently experiencing a bourbon shortage. However, if you go to your local store you will see it’s quite the opposite. There are walls of bourbon and with so many labels it’s hard to know where everything comes from. To help dig through this topic I’ve invited Chad & Sara from It’s Bourbon Night to join the show. We talk about how they met and how they’ve grown their YouTube channel into one of the premier places on the internet to get informative opinions on the latest whiskey releases as well as the favorite amongst many YouTubers, lists and top 10s.
