A Few Words

About us

I Am Black And I Drink A Lot Of Bourbon

Born And Raised In Brooklyn, NY, I Have Called Durham, NC My Home For 18+ Years. My Loving Partner, Stefany And I, Are The Parents Of Two Amazing Boys.

For Almost Two Decades I Have Worked At Restaurants With Some Of The Most Advanced Beverage Programs In North Carolina.

I Invest My Time In Studying The History And The Process Behind Each Brand And Bottle. That Intimate Knowledge Allows Me To Create Flavors That Are New And Exciting, But Also Familiar And Comforting.
My Last Few Years Have Been Filled With Traveling, Making Connections, And Trying To Taste Every Unique Spirit & Cocktail I Can Get My Hands On. From Antique Bourbon, To Old Tom Gin, To The Perfect Manhattan, There Is So Much To Know And Love About Booze. There Are Few Things Better Than Creating A Memorable Experience For My Family And Friends With Really Good Drinks. I Started The Black Bourbon Guy To Bring That Joy To A Wider Community.
