Notes From Your Bookseller

You hardly need to be an expert in whiskey to fall in love with Julian Van Winkle and the wild and woolly world of Kentucky whiskey. But if you do like whiskey, it's perfect. A soulfully written tale of family and authenticity; this story of fathers and sons, regional history and identity covers some deep territory, but doesn’t take itself too seriously.

The New York Times bestseller!

“A warm and loving reflection that, like good bourbon, will stand the test of time.” —Eric Asimov, The New York Times

“Bourbon is for sharing, and so is Pappyland.”—The Wall Street Journal

The story of how Julian Van Winkle III, the caretaker of the most coveted cult Kentucky Bourbon whiskey in the world, fought to protect his family's heritage and preserve the taste of his forebears, in a world where authenticity, like his product, is in very short supply.
