Interesting albeit a bit dull.

[Tyrel Clayton]

This was a really great overview of whiskey, where and how it's made, and the current state of the whiskey world. It got a bit list-y in certain places, but that was a small price to pay.

[Dan Sander]

Loved it and learn so much about whiskey and bourbon!
