The whiskey that Julian  produced after recovering those barrels would immediately be hailed as the  greatest in the world—and soon would be the hardest to find. Once they had  been used up, a fresh challenge began: preserving the taste of Pappy in a new age.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWright Thompson was invited to ride along as Julian undertook the task.  From the Van Winkle family, Wright learned not only about great bourbon but  about complicated legacies and the rewards of honoring your people and your  craft—lessons that he couldn’t help but apply to his own work and life. May  we all be lucky enough to find some of ourselves, as Wright Thompson did,  in Pappyland.","brand":"Penguin Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43380625801471,"sku":"9780735221253","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9780735221253_s600x595.jpg?v=1780335882","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9780735221253","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
