The speaker was a former manager of the Tito's brand who left because "they haven't distiller a drop in years". They buy and bottle.


That's upsetting, because in the same time frame they stopped distilling their own spirits, the price point went up about $3.

There's something wrong if the bulk of the business is marketing.

During Tales of the Cocktail I enjoyed calling out the hipsters on their "craft knowledge".

"Jack is too commercial man, Dickel Rye is the on bourbon in my Sazeracs." If only this article came out 2 weeks ago.. Dam

Hipsters..

What's scary is how we say all vodka is the same. Well what about bourbon to a certain degree?

This is not that surprising.

However, if a brand is buying bulk alcohol, then finishing it the way they want to at their facility and it tastes good, then does it matter?
