The hard stuff keeps flowing, in spite of potential hard times ahead.  We chat about the latest with the Kentucky Bourbon industry on this week's Access Louisville podcast. LBF Bourbon Reporter Stephen P. Schmidt is on the show to give us the latest on Chicken Cock Whiskey (yes, they realize they have a funny name.) The bourbon brand built a tasting room in Bardstown a year ago and is now planning to open another location in NuLu. Schmidt got the scoop on the new development from a company executive after it came to light in a legal ad. “We found a great space and a great part of town that is vibrant and growing,” Tyler Rothenberg, vice president of marketing for Grain & Barrel Spirits, CCW’s parent company, told us recently.Our next live podcast is July 28: Join us as we take look at Louisville's most important development projects.
