A barrel strength wheated bourbon is something that many of us would put miles on our car to ensure we secured a bottle.

Well the team at Cocktail With Friends was able to pick a barrel of barrel straight wheated bourbon. This wheated bourbon pick was designed to be used in spirit forward whiskey cocktails. Allowing for a balance and flavor from first to last sip.

In this episode of Cocktails with Friends I am joined by the co-founder of Wyoming Whiskey David DeFazio. We chat about the Private Stock program, his new life after selling a majority of his shares to Edrington & the joys of living in Jackson Wyoming.

I hope you enjoyed this conversation with David. Make sure to grab a bottle of our Wyoming Whiskey Private Stock at Stompers Beverage in Holden, ME starting this Saturday December 16th.
