re: Kentucky Bourbon Trail

Just went in October, this assessment is pretty spot on. The day we went to Michter’s, they didn’t drop any special bottles, but we got to bottle our own personalized bottle of Barrel Proof. They dropped M10B the next morning. Did have a great flight upstairs.

We had a special tour at BT because my buddy drew a Golden ticket for us to pick a barrel of Stagg. So, we had a private tour one notch above their Hard Hat tour. Scored a couple of bottles of Blanton’s each from the gift shop.

Surprisingly, Makers was the next best tour, the guy walking us through really knew his stuff and dipping a bottle was cool.

Underrated spot was the Troll Under the Bridge bar. Walked there from Old Forrester (which I loved) and watched Thursday Night football. Ran into an entire table full of guys from Baton Rouge in for a bachelor party for their Dad (that’s my age). We ended up having a blast finding out how many people we knew in common and several allocated pours at good prices.

And do NOT miss Neat!
