One of them was that the newly discharged Rittenhouse 21 was distilled at S-W and not HH. When I sad that I never heard of rye being distilled at S-W he said that “everybody made everything “ in those days. It has been said here on the bourd that it has been made by HH, but also that there haven’t been any rye made at S-W. According to this 2 links at least the later are wrong.

I've found references to Old Log Cabin, but I can't find much on Pedigree in my limited searches. Any information about these would be welcomed. The label on the Pedigree mini indicates that it was bottled in 1934, but unfortunately, the year it was distilled is unreadable.

One of my suggestions for improving the Kentucky Bourbon Festival is "Get a law passed allowing whiskey collectors (legal age only, of course) to have a legal and above board swap meet. It would be a natural extension of the existing Master Distiller's Auction."

If not sure how difficult this would be, legislatively, but it should be a state law matter. The feds need not be involved.

Well, collectors, if the KBF was able to run a legal whiskey collectors show, where you could display your collection and make deals with other collectors, would you be interested in that? Would it get you to attend the KBF when you otherwise would not? ]]> Collectibles cowdery http://www.straightbourbon.com/forums/showthread.php?t=14469
