The compelling story of how one man took a 150-year-old family
recipe and disrupted the entire liquor industry one sip, one
bottle, one handshake at a time Tom Bulleit stood on a stage before
a thousand people inside a tent the size of a big-top. It was both
his thirtieth wedding anniversary and his birthday. But there was
another thing to celebrate: the dedication of the new Bulleit
Distillery in Shelbyville, Kentucky. His great-great-grandfather,
Augustus, created his first batch of Bulleit Bourbon around 1830. A
century and a half later, Tom fulfilled his lifelong dream, revived
the old family bourbon recipe, and started Bulleit Distilling
Company. Eventually, Tom was named a member of the Honorable Order
of Kentucky Colonels, and elected to the Kentucky Bourbon Hall of
Fame. Thinking back on all his achievements, Tom was overcome by a
wave of emotion. He looked into the sea of faces and said, "I don't
believe our lives are told in years. . . or months. . . or weeks. I
believe we live our lives in moments." Tom's book Bulleit Proof is
just that--a life told in moments. Moments of joy, triumph,
hardship, persistence, and success. His is a story of survival in
war, in business, in life. Tom faced death twice: in a foxhole and
in a cancer ward. In Bulleit Proof, Tom reveals all, pulls no
punches, and lets you into his heart. In this book, you will: Share
