    This was such a cool episode. I love getting to see footage of the grounds of a distillery. After listening to an interview with Dave Pickerell I have been searching for offerings from them. They don’t come into our state much so they are difficult to find

    I've only had samples of the 10 and 12 year WP at a tasting. The 10 was nice but way too expensive at over $70. The 12 was not enjoyable, way too many flavors going on. I enjoy other rys much more and at under $40 or 50 = HW Double Rye, baby Saz and Davidson Reserve Tennessee Rye. Enjoyed your tour. Dan needed to stand up as the target for the axe throwing, like Ed Ames on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. A real classic!! You guys must be part Injun. Cheers!
