Why Doctors Were Prescribing Bourbon—and How Ten Day Bourbon Revived the Story
Description
During Prohibition, a legal loophole allowed doctors to prescribe whiskey for “medicinal use”—and patients could walk away with a 10-day supply. In this episode of Whiskey Rocks, we’re joined by Dr. Rob and Dr. Dave, two of the co-founders of Ten Day Bourbon, a bold brand bringing that rebellious spirit back to the glass.
We explore:
•The wild true story behind prescription bourbon during Prohibition
•How two real-life doctors turned that history into a full-flavored modern whiskey
•The science, creativity, and grit behind Ten Day Bourbon’s unique approach
•How they’re breaking norms in an industry steeped in tradition
•And of course, a tasting session that blends medicine with mischief
