Freddie Johnson is the third generation in his family to work for Buffalo Trace. While his career didn't start there, he ended up there as a tour guide and eventually Global Ambassador for the brand. Freddie is full of stories and insights into the bourbon industry, so much so that we had to make this a two-parter.

If Chris is here with six or so bottles, usually it's a casual episode. But someone let Chris team up with Dan and suddenly we have more than double the number of bottles. That's because we're trying fortified wines along with the spirits that they are traditionally barrel-finished in. It's arguably the best way to understand how a cask influences a spirit.

Chris is here, with a bunch of wines. Specifically, from Louis Jadot, the legendary Burgundian winemaker. Jadot both grows their own grapes, and buys grapes from other growers. In the US, they are known for entry-level wines like Beaujolais Villages and Macon Villages, but in France they are known for their Premier and Grand Cru wines. And we happen to sell them at great prices.

While it may be difficult to get in the US, it's pretty easy to find Chartreuse in France. Especially if you happen to be traveling there.

If you can't find Chartreuse don't worry, we have some alternatives to try also.
