The Whiskey Trust: America’s Most Corrupt Alcohol Empire | Ep. 116

Arsenic Culture Season 4 Episode 116

The Whiskey Trust wasn’t just about bourbon—it was a full-blown criminal syndicate. From strong-arm tactics and price-fixing to actual attempted bombings of rival distilleries, this was a booze empire built on intimidation and greed. Matt, Jason, and Kendra unpack the chaos behind America’s most corrupt alcohol monopoly, reveal how it tried to murder Dr. Jokichi Takamine (yes, the Koji whiskey guy), and dive into the shadowy rise of the Distillers and Cattle Feeders Trust.

Whether you’re a whiskey lover, history nerd, or true crime junkie, this one hits all the notes.
