We sit down with Chris Blandford, Kroger’s Wine & Spirits Expert and co-host of Fork & Flask, to talk about all things Bourbon & Beyond — one of the country’s biggest music, food, and bourbon festivals.
Chris shares how he got involved with the event, what it’s like to co-host Fork & Flask, and how the series brings musicians, chefs, and spirits together in a unique and flavorful way. He reflects on memorable moments from past years, interviewing artists over a few pours, and what it’s like to see music stars step into the bourbon and food world onstage.
Plus, we dig into the festival experience itself — from top-shelf tastings to local culinary creations — and Chris shares his favorite part of it all.
