    I've been into bourbon / whiskey for about a year now and as an electrician I meet all kinds of different people. And one thing I have noticed when you see whiskey bottles sitting on people's shelves whether they are shy or outgoing that is something you can Bond over, it really is like its own little community. I have gone to jobs where on day one the customer barely says a word then you ask them about a certain bottle and by day 3 they have pulled out 8 bottles that they think you have to try and you are having our long conversations with people I have been given some cool bottles as gifts, it really is a wonderful Community to be a part of. 😊😊

    Bought me a FYOB at Michters, the new Peerless, the single barrel OF rye, and Justin's House of Bourbon sold me a Thirteenth Colony Cask Strength they had in the back. Great day! And great to speak with you.

    You may have missed out at Michters. The weekend we went, they only have the fill your own bottle at open. When we went back at 11 to check in for the fill your own bottle event, they brought out a cart with Bombergers and Shenks on it. I guess they will do random drops through out the days as well.

    At 5:17 you filmed my parked silver Ford Transit cargo van. This is excellent. I will use a screen shot to argue with parking meter law enforcement. They issued me a $30 expired meter ticket but the vehicles had me blocked and I had no room to move my van! I had no visual evidence of my situation until now! Thanks TJ

    My buddy went there in May. I asked him to check at Michter’s for some rare bottles. They didn’t have anything at that time. Two weeks ago he was coming home from Tennessee and decided to stop back by Michter’s and scored me a Shenk’s and Bombergers.

    Hey! So I could be wrong like absolutely wrong but when I went to old forester several months ago I was told to get the 117 you had to take a tour and it was behind the cashier box. Not something they have on the shelf. You get the option to buy two bottles with your ticket

    I am not a drinker but in 'Nam, we AF guys had a booze ration card for four bottles a month. A hootch mate always drank I.W. Harper, hr called "Ignorant Willy" and I would buy him some bottles when he ran out. They would punch your ration card. I remember pay 4.25 a bottle. I guess it was a good price but I would not know since I rarely drink. Remembered that after seeing your video.

    I hit Whiskey Row last month and all I got was tired feet and one bottle at the new Bardstown Bourbon Company joint. That was cool, but Old Forester had NOTHING on the shelves. I bought a glass there so it wasn't a total waste of a good walk.
    I got an ECBP at the Evan Williams Experience, but I wanted a EW Red Label. They had plenty under the cash register, BUT it was $150 and you could only buy it after taking the tour ($20). Didn't have the time and it wasn't worth paying $170 for a tour I've already done. Whiskey Row is a disappointment.
