Sippin' Whiskey
Sippin' Whiskey
What I do is art; I make sippin' whiskey.
The other guys buy cheap corn and
throw in everything. Their idea of makin'
whiskey is too make as much as you can.
My stuff ain't for rednecks: it's for real
Southern gentlemen.
I take my sweet time to find the right
corn; sweet and mature but not too ripe.
It ain't about the volume, it's about
making it right.
I don't know how people drink that
rotgut stuff. I guess for them, cheap
is good enough. I don't put my stuff in
fruit jars or ceramic jugs. It goes into
wooden casks. It ages four a couple
a weeks.
There ain't no want for business. My
stuff sells as soon as it comes of age.
There are plenty of folks who love good
sippin' whiskey and are willing to pay
the price.
