Clay Risen, is a reporter at The New York Times and the author of the forthcoming book Bourbon: The Story of Kentucky Whiskey. He's also written a few other great books too. This interview started with us finding out more about Clay and talking about his book, but quickly turned into three friends sitting around BSing about whiskey. Hope you enjoy!
