Kentucky bourbon is a $9 billion industry.  The Kentucky Distiller's Organization reports the industry employs over 23,100 people and generates $358 million in tax revenue. 


Eric Gregory, the president of the Kentucky Distillers’ Association, told ABC affiliate WCPO  "We're trying to sound the alarms as much as possible that these are good, paying American jobs that are in jeopardy.  We have been caught up in trade wars that have nothing to do with whiskey."
