About this listen
Bootleg King George Remus believed that the Eighteenth Amendment was an immoral law – against the will of the people. In Remus’s mind, any law that was corrupt could be broken…and break Prohibition he did…on a grand, gaudy scale.
What set the Bourbon King apart from other criminals, bootleggers, and crooks who were trying to make a killing off booze boils down to two words: “Kentucky Dew.”
Kentucky Dew was the name given to Kentucky bourbon, then and now the finest in the world. Remus centered his budding empire on acquiring high-quality bourbon by any means necessary. He hoped to build an empire on Kentucky Dew, like John D. Rockefeller had in oil or JP Morgan in steel.
