Ya know, I think I remember that now. Thanks for reminding me.

Yes, Michael is easily distracted at times isn't he. 😋

Thanks for the feedback. I will keep that in mind, its what the owner and I always do together but realize, some may not know the back interaction we have...its never done out of disrespect.

We did stay, however, we didn't actually go into the festival. We used that day to go visit a few distilleries where we were able to get hard to get bottles, so I'd say yes, stay the 3rd, if not just to do that. I have heard too that the 3rd day is not as busy so might be a better pace for your preference.

That's very nice of you to say that. We have fun with it and don't try to be super polished, there are plenty of those channels out there like that. Cheers

It is getting exhausting. I do like a good MGP but like you said, there are so many of them out there. It's only going to get worse with Bardstown and Green River doing contract distilling, not to mention Wilderness Trail and a few new distillers coming online in a few years. The problem I have with contract distilling is how expensive their bottles are. I get it, when you source, it's expensive, but in the end to pay $100+ for a bottle of sourced is a lot of $$

In this case, it was part of the add-ons of going to the KY Bourbon Festival. But generally, we follow some great bourbon podcasts (like @bourbonpursuit) that keep us in the know!

@chasingneat I am going to this next year

Awesome! We definitely recommend getting the General Admission 3 day, and then if you want to splurge, by the extra add-on events. Although the add-ons can be pricey, you at least get the opportunity to be up close and personal with some of your favorite distillery and distillers/blenders. Most of the master distillers are out at their booths at some point throughout the weekend, without any special access.

Supporting the charity is absolutely the best part, hands down!! Trying high proof at an ND tailgate...bonus! :-)

Yes they were! Thank goodness we won that game!! Go Irish!

This was so much fun! You have to first start by becoming a Patreon for Pursuit Spirits. It's a great group of people to hang out with for a weekend!

Oh do tell!! Which collection is bigger? ;-)

Sneakers!

That's great!!

Thanks for the feedback. We're tryin' :-)

I’m glad I’m not the only one that picks up on that 😊🥃

Define "crazy" lol! We'd love to see some of your collection! What are some of your favorite shoes you've purchased!?

Right!! Isn't it funny how everyone has a "I wouldn't pay that much money for...." but then we pay a lot for other things, just as expensive! I do love seeing what people like to collect!

We do!! We are blessed, not to mention it's great so nobody has to drive under the influence!

Good to know. So that metal sign is at least 14+ feet. Not sure how tall the bus was.

@chasingneat should be... doesn't mean it is. It's more highly regulated on roads. It is supposed to be anywhere the public has access to. But the Grey area is if that is considered private then the rules don't apply.

Well now, that depends on your point of view. 🤣

lol. We were rookies when we started our topper collection back in 2018. Happy to report we have all of them now, the authentic way! Thanks for the tip on the 2 N's!

You got that right! Tipsy is killin' it over there in Ashley! Hope you get a chance to visit him too! Check out and follow his FB for the great selections he keeps getting!

This one is definitely a HOT one, but if you like that high proof, this will be your jam! I am surprised there is a SB at 90 proof, great grab!

Yes, true, here is the current CFR: www.ecfr.gov/current/title-27/chapter-I/subchapter-A/part-5/subpart-F/section-5.88 § 5.88 Bottled in bond. (a) The term “bond,” “bonded,” “bottled in bond,” or “aged in bond,” or phrases containing these or synonymous terms, may be used (including as part of the brand name) only if the distilled spirits are: (1) Composed of the same kind (type, if one is applicable to the spirits, otherwise class) of spirits distilled from the same class of materials; (2) Distilled in the same distilling season (as defined in § 5.1) by the same distiller at the same distillery. (3) Stored for at least 4 years in wooden containers wherein the spirits have been in contact with the wood surface, except for vodka, which must be stored for at least 4 years in wooden containers coated or lined with paraffin or other substance which will preclude contact of the spirits with the wood surface, and except for gin, which must be stored in paraffin-lined or unlined wooden containers for at least 4 years; (4) Unaltered from their original condition or character by the addition or subtraction of any substance other than by filtration, chill proofing, or other physical treatments (which do not involve the addition of any substance which will remain in the finished product or result in a change in class or type); (5) Reduced in proof by the addition of only pure water to 50 percent alcohol by volume (100 degrees of proof); and (6) Bottled at 50 percent alcohol by volume (100 degrees of proof). (b) Imported spirits labeled as “bottled in bond” or other synonymous term described above must be manufactured in accordance with paragraphs (a)(1) through (6) of this section and may only be so labeled if the laws and regulations of the country in which the spirits are manufactured authorize the bottling of spirits in bond and require or specifically authorize such spirits to be so labeled. The “bottled in bond” or synonymous statement must be immediately followed, in the same font and type size, by the name of the country under whose laws and regulations such distilled spirits were so bottled. (c) Domestically manufactured spirits labeled as “bottled in bond” or with some other synonymous statement must bear the real name of the distillery or the trade name under which the distiller distilled and warehoused the spirits, and the number of the distilled spirits plant in which distilled, and the number of the distilled spirits plant in which bottled. The label may also bear the name or trade name of the bottler.

Oh yes, we tried one at Pursuit Palooza last summer and it was soo good we bought the bottle!

We are a full service review channel!

Thanks for the tip!

Shut up!!! Now we'll have to go visit that store too!! Thanks for the tip!

Have fun! We've never been on that excursion. Let us know how you like it!

He have that one, it is really good!

Michael here; Well, not really but then again mostly it is because I don't talk enough. I probably should do more interjecting in the future. :-)

We have heard good things about that, we still have yet to try it, but want to.

Hmm, not sure either, unless they went in on the barrel pick, but you would think that they would each get a supply to call their own.

Yes we love Amman, is is genuinely a good person! Love his store and all his barrel picks!

Here is a short list: Bars Jackson's Cigars & Spirits facebook.com/jacksonsbourbonlounge/ The Exchange Bar theexchangebars.com/ Food: LaSalle Kitchen & Tavern lasallekitchenandtavern.com/ Fiddler's Hearth fiddlershearth.com/ About an hour away: 6 on James (best and biggest whiskey bar in the area) facebook.com/6Autumns/

Richard was great! So passionate about they have been able to do with the app and the vintage bottles. It was such a treat that we got to taste one! It was rather smooth, I must admit! We can't wait to send him our full list!

Everyone kept saying that this year's festival was one of the best! We thought it was fantastic! And that Boozapp makes it so much more convenient than just doing a google search, for sure!! We've only been to 1 Binny's and hope to get back to more of them this fall!

Thank you, sir! We are having fun with it...don't know about a Wednesday edition, ha ha. Maybe we could be talked into that too.
