National Bourbon Week in Bardstown June 9th-15th

[ThirstyinOhio]

Next week is National Bourbon Week in Bardstown (link to website: Events | National Bourbon Week) and the rumor is that tickets to the events sold a lot slower than expected and many events still have tickets available (may have to go direct to the distilleries website to buy tickets for some of the events listed on the NBW website).  In the years past, many of the distilleries participating in releasing a whiskey at each location that they called the Bardstown Collection but they decided not to do that this year and maybe thats decreasing the excitement or it's just another sign that Bourbon has lost some of its luster...  Either way, I'll be in town most of that week so if anyone else on here is attending any of the events, please let me know and maybe we can meet up to share a pour or two.

Oh now this is very interesting. Looking at the events it very much reminds me of the Kentucky Bourbon Affair events that occurred in the 2010's up until covid killed it. 

I attended those multiple times and was very sad to see it go away. If I lived closer I'd definitely do some of these events.
