The compelling story of how one man took a 150-year-old family recipe and disrupted the entire liquor industry one sip, one bottle, one handshake at a time

Tom Bulleit stood on a stage before a thousand people inside a tent the size of a big-top. It was both his thirtieth wedding anniversary and his birthday. But there was another thing to celebrate: the dedication of the new Bulleit Distillery in Shelbyville, Kentucky. His great-great-grandfather, Augustus, created his first batch of Bulleit Bourbon around 1830. A century and a half later, Tom fulfilled his lifelong dream, revived the old family bourbon recipe, and started Bulleit Distilling Company. Eventually, Tom was named a member of the Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels, and elected to the Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame. Thinking back on all his achievements, Tom was overcome by a wave of emotion. He looked into the sea of faces and said, "I don't believe our lives are told in years. . . or months. . . or weeks. I believe we live our lives in moments."

Tom's book Bulleit Proof is just that--a life told in moments. Moments of joy, triumph, hardship, persistence, and success. His is a story of survival in war, in business, in life. Tom faced death twice: in a foxhole and in a cancer ward. In Bulleit Proof, Tom reveals all, pulls no punches, and lets you into his heart. In this book, you will:

  • Share Tom's personal story, including his loves, losses, and struggles
  • Learn the history of one of America's most beloved and awarded brands
  • Draw inspiration from the persistence and dedication Tom has shown throughout his life
  • Explore how Bulleit Bourbon changed the liquor industry forever

Bulleit Proof is a fast-paced page-turner--not only for fans of Bulleit Bourbon and admirers of Tom, but for anyone who loves an emotional, hilarious, inspirational, and deeply honest story.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

一位男子如何利用一個150年歷史的家族食譜,逐步顛覆整個酒類產業的感人故事,每一口、每一瓶、每一次握手

湯姆·布利特(Tom Bulleit)站在一個如大帳篷般大小的舞台上,面對著一千名觀眾。這不僅是他的三十周年結婚紀念日,也是他的生日。但還有另一件事值得慶祝:位於肯塔基州謝爾比維爾的新布利特酒廠的揭幕。他的曾曾祖父奧古斯都(Augustus)在1830年左右創造了第一批布利特波本威士忌(Bulleit Bourbon)。一個半世紀後,湯姆實現了他一生的夢想,復興了這個古老的家族波本食譜,並創立了布利特蒸餾公司(Bulleit Distilling Company)。最終,湯姆被授予肯塔基州上校榮譽勳章,並入選肯塔基波本名人堂。回想起自己所有的成就,湯姆被一陣情感所淹沒。他望向人群,說道:「我不相信我們的生命是以年、月或週來計算的。我相信我們的生活是由瞬間組成的。」

湯姆的書《Bulleit Proof》正是如此——一個由瞬間組成的生命故事。充滿喜悅、勝利、艱辛、堅持和成功的瞬間。他的故事是關於在戰爭、商業和生活中生存的故事。湯姆曾兩次面對死亡:在戰壕中和在癌症病房中。在《Bulleit Proof》中,湯姆毫無保留地揭示了一切,讓你進入他的內心。在這本書中,你將:

  • 分享湯姆的個人故事,包括他的愛、失落和掙扎

  • 了解美國最受喜愛和獲獎品牌之一的歷史

  • 從湯姆一生中展現的堅持和奉獻中獲得靈感

  • 探索布利特波本如何永遠改變酒類產業
  • 《Bulleit Proof》是一本節奏快速的翻頁書——不僅適合布利特波本的粉絲和湯姆的崇拜者,也適合任何喜愛情感豐富、幽默、鼓舞人心且深具誠意故事的人。
