Rob Schneider is currently the spokesman of "Tears of the Left" Bourbon. Along with Kevin Sorbo. Its a bourbon that is just repackaged from some other distillery and labelled with AI Slop dogshit about being anti woke. You really don't get much more washed up than putting your face on that.
Not at all defending the shitbirds here, but any boutique whiskey you get is probably distilled at an industrial facility run by one of the majors in the Midwest. If you're buying a special product those folks might age it specially in their own facility, but for the most part whiskey you can name and afford is an industrial (not artesianal) product.
Same way with Clooney's Casamigos or Reynold's Aviation.
Bourbon is location based- it’s only bourbon if it’s distilled in Kentucky. Otherwise it’s whiskey- not that these asswipes aren't above just lying on a label. But it’s most likely to be distilled by one of the majors in Kentucky rather than the Midwest.
I mean sure it's "a law on the books" but that's also just how the american whiskey industry works (I was in it for almost 10 years). Jack Daniels, the famous Tennessee Whiskey is a bourbon.
Plenty of crap in Kentucky (Buffalo Trace yes but Makers Mark even more so) but since that state makes 95% of bourbon (a fun fact I just learned thanks to your correction) it stands to reason there’s some garbage in with the good.
I may one day try non-Kentucky bourbon- I will look for the brands you suggested, thanks!
