Sara Havens has been a bourbon enthusiast and educator long before the boom began. As a Louisville-based writer of 20+ years, her work has appeared in various publications, including Bourbon+ Magazine, The Bourbon Review, Alcohol Professor, and Food & Dining Magazine. In 2020, Havens was one of 10 finalists in Bardstown Bourbon Co.'s World’s Top Whiskey Taster competition, beating out more than 400 contenders to represent Kentucky. She serves as CaskX's Director of Whiskey.
While bourbon must contain at least 51% corn, what distillers do with the other 49% is what separates one brand from another.
Experts and industry insiders agree that this so-called “Bourbon Boom” is here to stay, and whiskey lovers around the world wouldn’t have it any other way.
We’re making it possible for everyone to invest in bourbon barrels & scotch whisky casks from leading distilleries.
