Kentucky Bourbon Tariffs

What Americans drink has no impact on those tariffs. There are no new tariffs for whiskey or liquor imported into the USA. Therefore, American end users of liquor won't be impacted.

But distillers and related business that are involved in the Bourbon industry will be impacted. This could result in layoffs or reduced sales of their products and services.

Americans need to start drinking American whiskey instead of imported whiskey. America imports 2.2 million in whiskey imported from other countries. If Americans stop importing whiskey they can buy the whiskey being exported. We import more than we export.
Get it.

Maybe all American whiskey drinkers don’t prefer Bourbon/American Whiskey?

Probably not but if they are so worried about the effect of the tariffs.............oh wait they are not. They're actually creaming their shorts fantasizing that these tariffs will financially destroy all those who voted for Trump or against Hillary.
