Whiskey is an agricultural end-product, so by celebrating John Deere’s self-propelled combine harvester, introduced in 1947, with this pitch-perfect, 8-year-age-stated wheated bourbon, Fiddler shines light on the complex machines that make the large-scale agriculture practiced by America’s farmers (and the craft of its distillers) possible.
