Didn't stay the extra day and pick up Eagle Rare ?

I could have, but not a huge fan of that one. I was hoping for the Weller, but didn't hit.

EHT is definitely one of my favorites!

Just got back from Clarksville, TN (might as well be Kentucky, we were staying a couple miles away in KY). There is a place called Old Glory Distilling Company. They were having tasting tours coming through. We didn't partake in the drinks but had an amazing burger (Ground Ribeye, Brisket and Chuck, Swiss and Aged Cheddar and Gin Distilled Pickles). I highly recommend.

They have a nice microbrewery in Clarkville (also Knoxville) called Black Horse. A couple I brought back last winter.

Thanks for the tip!

And I left a couple of bottles in the camper…

Jealous.

I'm guessing there wasn't any EH Taylor Single Barrel?

No, Bottled in Bond was the daily special.

It's on my list to visit Buffalo Trace soon. Did you do any of the tours or just visit the shop? If so, which one? And if you went again, would you do anything differently?

I was a part of my Airstream Grapes & Grains club rally in Frankfort. We visited 8 distilleries in 2 days, and did not do the Buffalo Trace tours - just the shop and tasting room. The very long lines move pretty fast - they must have studies Chik Fil-a! I'd say do one of the Buffalo tours, but don't miss Woodford or Castle & Key. If you head down to Bardstown, hit Makers, Heaven Hill and Bardstown Bourbon. And have a DD or take a bus tour so you can taste all you want!

I keep putting off the bourbon trail trip. Op, your haul looks amazing.

It's well worth it. Our club is planning a Louisville trip next May.

Is the Airstream group doing this? I don't see any 2025 events scheduled yet. We are recent owners and were looking at doing some club events.

Look in the ACI website under intra-clubs for Grapes & Grains. I am a board member, so I have a little insight into what we're doing in the future. We'd love to have you as a member!

Excellent, signed up for ACI. We were already planning a Louisville bourbon trip next year, so we'll keep an eye on the G&G schedule. Would be fun to do it with the group.

We're a pretty fun group. We've got a handful of Aggies representing, and the State of Texas is very well represented.
