Carlton, Carla Harris. Barrel Strength Bourbon: The Explosive Growth of America’s Whiskey. Clerisy Press, 2017. First edition.
Aging imposes years between production decisions and sales. Rutledge recounts warning Four Roses about underproduction before steep case-sales increases; he sees reducing future production as easier than creating aged stock immediately. The chapter covers generational succession, Pam Heilmann and Marianne Barnes, export optimism, craft-distillery survival and tourism as a long-run proposition.
