Bulleit proof: how i took a 150-year-old family recipe, a revolver, and disrupted the entire liquor industry one bottle, one sip, one handshake at a t Ebook

About a year ago, Tom Bulleit stood on a stage inside a tent the size of a big-top on the occasion of–in order of importance–his thirtieth wedding anniversary, the dedication of the new Bulleit Distillery in Shelbyville, Kentucky, and his seventy-fourth birthday. At one point, overcome by a sudden and surprising wave of emotion, he gripped the podium, looked into the blur of faces before him, and said, I dont believe our lives are told in years or months or weeks. I believe we live our lives in moments. Thats what this book will be–a life told in moments–moments of joy, triumph, love, loss, discovery, commitment, faith, fortitude, struggle, persistence, and success; at least his definition of success, which has little to do with money. At its core, the book will weave through it a thread of survival–in war, in business, in life. Tom nearly died twice, once in a foxhole and once in an oncology ward, and, for the record, he never met an atheist in either place. Hell reveal all, no holds barred, no punches pulled.
