In this uproarious episode of Bourbon With Friends, Paul takes the show on the road to Versailles, Kentucky (5 minutes from my house, who knew!), where he visits the Blackwood Distilling Company. Unfortunately, Connor couldn't make it because, well, work happened. Cue the sad violin music!

But fear not, dear friends, because Paul is joined by a star-studded cast to keep the laughs rolling. Former Heisman Trophy finalist and NFL quarterback, Joey Harrington, graces us with his presence. And if that's not enough star power for you, we also have the Blackwood President & Co-Founder and Kentucky Derby Champion, Guinness McFadden!

But wait, there's more! We've got special appearances by the one and only Uproxx Drinks editor, Zach Johnston, and the bourbon connoisseur extraordinaire, Justin Sloan, owner of Justin's House Of Bourbon. T

So buckle up, folks, because this episode is a wild ride filled with belly laughs and bourbon banter.  Trust me, you don't want to miss out on this rollicking good time! Pour yourself a glass of your favorite bourbon, sit back, and get ready to laugh your way through another fantastic episode of Bourbon With Friends. Cheers!

In this episode, we are joined by Clayton, Jacob & Ron Call as they discuss their newest project, Hemingway Rye Whiskey!

Hemingway Rye is built on family traditions. Just as Ernest Hemingway lived a life full of timeless tales worth regaling, the same is true for the Call and Groth Families. The men who crafted this First Edition Rye have distilling in their blood, along with stories and lessons passed down for more than 230 years.

Whiskey Pioneer & Founder Steve Groth and his two sons collaborated with 7th-generation Master Distiller Ron Call and his two sons, Clayton and 8th-generation Master Distiller Jacob – to author a new whiskey masterpiece and further their legacy with Hemingway Whiskey.
