My family has taken a liking to vacationing in Wisconsin, so I’m always interested in Wisconsin spirits…
Independent bottlers are fun… and Lost Lantern does a fantastic job at highlighting craft distillers. I’ve been aware of Wollersheim, but this was my first time tasting their whiskey. After this experience, I would definitely like to try more whiskey from the same distillery.
