Bourbon Empire: The Past and Future of America's Whiskey

Bourbon Empire: The Past and Future of America's Whiskey

How bourbon came to be, and why itâ€™s experiencing such a revival today
Â
Unraveling the many myths and misconceptions surrounding Americaâ€™s most iconic spirit, Bourbon Empire traces a history that spans frontier rebellion, Gilded Age corruption, and the magic of Madison Avenue. Whiskey has profoundly influenced Americaâ€™s political, economic, and cultural destiny, just as those same factors have inspired the evolution and unique flavor of the whiskey itself.
Â
Taking readers behind the curtain of an enchantingâ€”and sometimes exasperatingâ€”industry, the work of writer Reid Mitenbuler crackles with attitude and commentary about taste, choice, and history. Few products better embody the United States, or American business, than bourbon.
Â
A tale of innovation, success, downfall, and resurrection, Bourbon Empire is an exploration of the spirit in all its unique forms, creating an indelible portrait of both bourbon and the people who make it.
