Many of the largest spirits companies in the world have stumbled in the past year as white spirits and several of their large mainstream brands have weathered a dip in popularity. One company that hasn't been as negatively impacted as its competitors is Brown-Forman. You'll recall, the company's whiskey-heavy portfolio delivered 10% growth in the US, reaching $1.76 billion in fiscal 2015. Moreover, B-F's compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for net sales has been in the mid single-digit range for the last 10 years.
