Pappyland: A Story of Family, Fine Bourbon, and the Things That Last
by Wright Thompson
If you are looking for a detailed history on the world’s most sought-after bourbon, this isn’t it. Though you’ll get a decent amount of the story of how Pappy Van Winkle came to be, it is not what this book is about. Instead this is a story about family and friends, risk and reward, time and patience, faith and belief, history and legacy. It’s a beautifully written homage to bourbon itself, the man (and family) responsible for one of the best bourbons, and to the spirit’s place within the culture of the American south. I really enjoyed reading it.
