Im on my way to the BT distillery Wednesday afternoon for the Old Taylor party, which provides me with a chance to meet Elmer and maybe pick up a few bottles I'm missing :bigeyes:
Anyone else here attending as well?

I will be there. I saw Elmer yesterday and he said he will be there.
I will see you!
I'll be there in spirit Fred. Say hello to Elmer for me and tell him I said Happy Birthday.

I was able to attend. The Buffalo Trace folks are always great hosts. The highlight for me was the special tour conducted by Colonel Taylor and Freddie.
It truly was a nice event. Sorry I did not see you there. Elmer is doing fine after a bad winter for him. It was great to learn that soon we will have some bourbon made the vintage way (Mark shared that 7 years ago they put up some whiskey with a very old-fashioned mash bill).
This photo is hilarious.Quote:

I am not certain I heard this correctly -- maybe someone else can confirm -- but I believe they also got 1,700 barrels of bourbon as part of the transaction.
