After Years of Waiting A Bourbon Industry Staple FINALLY Comes to Missouri!! (And it’s Priced Right, Too!)
Anyone that knows anything about bourbon knows Heaven Hill. They’re responsible for some of the most-recognized and most highly soft-after whiskies in America. I mean, who doesn’t know Evan Williams?

Happy Whiskey…Thursday?
First of all, I just want to say that I am so, so sorry. We’ve been trying to get some kind of whiskey drawing/release/etc every couple of weeks on Wednesdays, even though allocations have almost completely dried up in the new year. Today. Was. Nuts.
