In part two of this week's episode, we've got the "merger of equals" discussions between Brown-Forman and Pernod Ricard, a maritime showdown as Jefferson’s Bourbon announces a fleet-wide aging partnership with Holland America Line, while Milam & Greene launches its own 188-day world cruise experiment aboard Regent Seven Seas. But it’s not all smooth sailing; we’re also covering the ongoing Uncle Nearest saga, the lawsuits at Bardstown Bourbon Co., and the latest foreclosure and lien news out of LF Heritage Distilling Co. Also, National Bourbon Week tickets are now on sale, Kentucky Bourbon Festival tickets go on sale in just a couple of weeks, Chicken Cock rebrands their Louisville speakeasy and the IWSC returns to Bardstown!
