Not every great bourbon has to be rare or hard to find. In this episode of The Bourbon Case Files, Nick and guest Mike Vaughn, Esq., Senior Trial Attorney at Norden Leacox, explore what makes Four Roses Single Barrel a true “everyday drinker.” From smooth cinnamon notes to its unique OBSV recipe, Nick explains why this bottle balances accessibility, flavor, and value- a pour that belongs on almost any bar.
As Mike takes his first sip, the two discuss why single barrel bourbons are never exactly alike, how mash bills and aging shape taste, and why availability can affect price. Beyond bourbon, Mike shares his passion for trial work and the art of thinking on your feet, while the conversation drifts into Florida heat, Kentucky roots, and surfing adventures!
