The one-paragraph version

Whiskey JYPSI doesn't have a quality problem — it has a permission problem. When people actually taste it, they come around ("blown away," "absolutely loved it," "solid bottle — didn't even know it was a celebrity whiskey"). But the $200 price and general celebrity-whiskey fatigue stop most people from ever taking the first sip. The whole growth play is one move: get the whiskey into more mouths cheaply, and let it close the sale.

The Wedge

"Good juice, but is it worth $200?" is the single most repeated reaction. Fix the funnel, not the whiskey.
