bourbon industry and the farmers, so I supported him on that.\”Mixed feelings in the bourbon industryDespite some support for Trump, there is no denying the impact of the trade war on the bourbon industry, which has been hit hard by tariffs and retaliatory measures. And for Victor Yarbrough of Brough Brothers Distillery, the situation is dire. \”We\’re a small business, we don\’t have the luxury of being able to absorb a lot of these additional costs,\” he said. \”We have to pass it on to the consumer, and that\’s not good for anyone.\”Yarbrough says that while the negative emails are hurtful, he understands the frustration and anger behind them. \”People are passionate about their country, and they should be,\” he said. \”But I hope that they can see that we are just a small business trying to survive in this difficult time.\”Despite the challenges, Yarbrough remains hopeful that a resolution can be reached and that the bourbon industry can bounce back. \”We have to remain optimistic and keep pushing forward,\” he said. \”Bourbon is a part of Kentucky\’s heritage and culture, and we will do everything we can to ensure that it continues to thrive.\”As he closes his laptop and looks out at the rows of barrels filled with aging bourbon, Yarbrough knows that the road ahead will be tough. But with determination and perseverance, he is confident that Brough Brothers Distillery will weather the storm and come out stronger on the other side.
