About the product: Fathertime is a Kentucky bourbon from comedian Jim Gaffigan.Second Child Syndromeis Fathertime’s second release, andEmpty Nester Strengthis the cask strength version.

Jim fell in love with bourbon after he and his wife Jeannie learned an occasional drink provided a momentary break from parenting teenagers. If you have children, you understand.
As he continues to learn and do research on bourbon, Jim has grown to appreciate stronger pours. Thats why he decided to bottle some ofSecond Child Syndromeat cask strength (~120 proof), affectionately referring to this expression asEmpty Nester Strength. When children finally leave the home, parents enter a unique stage in their journey. While empty nesters are often characterized as being victoriously liberated from parental responsibilities, they sometimes also experience a level of grief. The grip of love and fear that permeates parenting grows a little tighter. And some nights that calls for a stronger bourbon.
The same principles that inspired theFirstborn Editionof Fathertime have also guided the creation of this new release,Second Child Syndrome. This endeavor is still just Jim and Stu tasting barrels and putting together a smooth and delicious bourbon. This batch is just as precious as the first, and each bottle is personally signed by Jim, which was a pain in the ass but totally worth it – much like fatherhood.
