I first met Peter Pogue at the Oscar Getz Museum of Whiskey History about twenty years ago. We were both part of the Whisky Magazine tasting for the “Best of the Best Whiskey”. Peter introduced himself as we were sitting at a table with Elmer T. Lee, Ed Foote, and a couple of other people whose names escape me right now. He asked what I thought of his Old Pogue Bourbon. I answered him honestly by saying it is a good Bourbon but priced higher than others of the same quality. I understood why he had to charge more, as he was new into the business and I wished him luck in the market. I hoped people would look past the price and support this new brand. He appreciated my honesty of opinion, and we have been friends ever since that encounter.
