All I asked was where to shop for bourbon in either state. That's all I asked... You know how things go around here.  No kidding. Some guys are really sensitive about this stuff. Don't even get started on things like ice cubes....
A wise man is frequently humbled.

You have just made real Kentucky Bourbon, at least by legal standards. ...
No you haven't. OK. I'll bite. What did I leave out? I'm going to guess aging. Remember, even though it's the Ohio River, the river water actually belongs to Kentucky-- up to the Ohio shoreline. Cincinnati Metropolitan Sewer District empties out right below downtown, so being a proud Cincinnatian, I piss on KY with every flush. Oh wait! I'm sorry, #1013, Corn #3 comes from the plant at Lawrenceburg, IN. Sorry, my bad. See you, get away from this stuff for a few years and it all goes flying out of your head.

Bourbon allows for no additives, goat wizz or even the caramel color that is allowed in Scotch. I didn't note where your juice passed through a barrel either.

Some of the harder to find bourbons are easier to find outside of Kentucky. Check out the small out of the way CVS stores. I was traveling in WV and wife needed to visit one for something. I went in with her and found a E.H. Taylor small batch at retail which is $40. Actually can be hard to find here in KY and if the small mom & Pop liquor stores have it, they mark it up considerably.
For the small places, always ask what they have hidden under the counter and look up on the shelves above the counter, but those prices will probably be high. Ask anyways.

Also, check out Catoctin Creek distillery in Northern Virginia. Their rye is pretty good.

Be better off hunting up some good shine.... Might be easier in West-By-god. Especially if he wants to avoid yuppies, and metro sexual. Because that what he is gonna find in some microdistillery. I’ve never had decent shine from WVa. Virginia is the home of the best moonshine made, and lots of it. Hands down.

SMH in wonder 😬🦫 I grew up in North Carolina and went to college with a guy from Franklin Co. We made a few trips up there when supplies were low. Hell, I used to have the glow in the dark tee shirt. I’ve got no idea where it is now, though.
