The idea for Bitches & Bourbon was born in a garage bar during the initial 2020 COVID quarantine. Two epicurean women discovered early in our friendship that we both prefer whiskey to any other adult beverage. Provoked by our husbands, we decided that for $12 we could own the domain bitchesandbourbon.com. We would figure out what to do with it later. During the pursuit of finding our next bottle, we learned more about the art of whiskey crafting, the intersections of other spirits, and the different ways in which these flavor profiles enhance enjoyment in our lives. We also encountered many other women who wanted to know more as well but didn’t feel comfortable in the space for a variety of reasons. Our husbands suggested a podcast.
