She looks around like she’s taking inventory. Cataloging every detail. I always feel a sense of pride run through me knowing that I’ve built and nurtured this place. That it’s as much home as it is work. I never thought I’d feel that way about anything else, and then I became a dad.”
“There’s only bourbon back there . . .” she says, watching as I study what’s displayed and then pull a few bottles from shelves. “Is it against the rules to tell Lincoln Foxx that I don’t love bourbon?” She scrunches her nose and finishes it with a smile.”
I wrap my fingers around two Glencairns, the small glasses we use specifically for tasting, and put them in front of her. “Bourbon has plenty of rules. In order to call it bourbon, it needs to follow them.”
Plucking a bottle from the middle shelf, I give it a quick pour. I tip the glass back, letting the alcohol burn along my tongue. A palate starter.
As she rests her elbows on the bar, she says, “Outside of making bourbon, I think rules can be dangerous.”
I lean toward her and take a second to really look, pushing my glasses up the bridge of my nose. I’ve looked at her in so many different lights and lenses. “Almost as dangerous as secrets.”
She smiles as her eyes search mine. “But you and I tend to have some of those, don’t we?”
