So here we are in February and we are still going strong at the distillery. I used to say that our events season runs from September to November where we travel to events to do tastings and cocktails and even host a few events at the distillery itself. Well now “events season” it’s proving to be September, October, November, December, January, February oh and we have a lot planned for March and April and well…I guess the whole rest of the year! It’s really amazing and exciting!
One of our newest home grown additions to our events is Distiller for a Day. I literally can’t schedule enough dates to fulfill the desire people have to do this event. It’s a small event where you get to work alongside my husband and father-in-law and actually DO the process of making bourbon from grain to glass! We keep it limited to 4 people so that you have a quality experience.
When my father-in-law says, “wear pants that you don’t mind getting dirty,” you can expect to get down and dirty. No Joke. You will haul the grain, you will take measurements, and you will bottle and then some. It is a jam packed day of bourbon fun.
Like I mentioned, it has become such a neat event that I have people contacting me from across the country to fly in and be a part of this. Our next date is in April and that is already booked as well!
We did a podcast with The Great Beer Adventure and although we don’t make beer there are some similarities in the process and well, there are beer cocktails that are all the rage these days. I had never been a part of a podcast before and I liked it! I’d even consider doing one myself one day!
