Bourbon - The Read

Bourbon is THE spirit of the United States of America.Undefined for most of our history, it has a murky origin story deep in marketing cover and tall tales.On this week's episode of A More Perfect Plate, we share the competing origin stories of American Bourbon Whiskey and how marketing shaped the path of this most highly regarded of American spirits.This is "The Read" where Nick narrates the entire story to save you from reading it - but if you prefer reading, you can find the link to the blog post below!On our companion episode, "The Discussion," Nick & co-host Bridget (a marketing expert) have fun talking about these stories, and play a little game of trying to match bourbons to their descriptions!Read the full Dispatch on our blog.Watch "The Discussion" on YouTube.You can find our hub with the written dispatches, book suggestions, and more at: amoreperfectplate.comPlease be sure to subscribe to keep discovering interesting American stories.
