What happens when an Aussie distiller takes on bourbon on its home turf?
In this episode, we sip and unpack the Larrikin KBF Single Barrel — a true bourbon made by the team at Larrikin, distilled and aged in Kentucky.
We explore the flavour, the story behind the distillery, and whether this cross-continental endeavour delivers the goods. It's Australia meets America in a bottle, and it makes for a bold conversation.
