Back in March of 2018, we were lucky enough to sit down with the late Al Young. This was one of the biggest moments for us as we were just starting to build some steam with the podcast. Having an interview with an icon of whiskey made us feel like we made it. We will forever be grateful and appreciative to him for taking the time to sit down with us and for everything he did for whiskey. Enjoy.

Our friends Mike, Casey, and James started a whiskey company so we sat down with them to find more about it. The interesting thing is that they aren't necessarily about finding a profile and a standard product, but about finding the best barrels they can to allow stores and groups to get barrel picks when they are becoming increasingly hard to find.
