Got the notification from the local store about their barrel pick, so I had to run out and get one (my first JD bottles). All of the stores around me now make you buy another bottle to get the store pick, so they essentially cost 2x as much. I’m told they do that so they sell enough regular stuff to get invited back to do more barrel picks based on sales.

It’s the kind of thing that makes one cringe a bit when you first think about it - nah, that’ll never work - but gets more plausible the more you chew on it. Especially after a few bourbons :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

And I think there are enough of us within driving distance for garner enough interest, even if it’s just say a two table meetup with like 12 to 18 guys. And I can think of at least a couple more further away that would consider flying in.

A decent sized, multi bedroom AirBNB outside Louisville or Lexington within striking distance of a half dozen distilleries, a couple of guys driving in with tables or rollout mats, a few chip sets and some local catering. It would definitely require a small core group to organize and lead the way, but it’s doable. If I wasn’t prepping for my oldest to head to college this fall I’d consider it, but I just don’t have the capacity at the moment. So for now, bucket list :)
