It’s the kind of thing that makes one cringe a bit when you first think about it - nah, that’ll never work - but gets more plausible the more you chew on it. Especially after a few bourbons :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

And I think there are enough of us within driving distance for garner enough interest, even if it’s just say a two table meetup with like 12 to 18 guys. And I can think of at least a couple more further away that would consider flying in.

A decent sized, multi bedroom AirBNB outside Louisville or Lexington within striking distance of a half dozen distilleries, a couple of guys driving in with tables or rollout mats, a few chip sets and some local catering. It would definitely require a small core group to organize and lead the way, but it’s doable. If I wasn’t prepping for my oldest to head to college this fall I’d consider it, but I just don’t have the capacity at the moment. So for now, bucket list :)

Same here. I blame @Saoliver ..... Again.... ;):ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

J/k of course. I was chatting with @Billy Baroo about this the other day, I thoroughly enjoy reading everyone's thoughts and reviews, there are soooo many different offerings out there and so little time, I do a good deal of my purchases these days based on reviews and recommendations from reading and chatting with the group. This thread is one of my favorites on PCF and this little subsection of the forum is such a cool little group of crazies. I'd love to do a whiskey PCFer meet-up one of these days somewhere on the whiskey trail in Ketucky with you all!

PS - we should hit 1k pages this year, I think we'll eventually catch mail thread lol

Please tag me whenever this happens!

I know some of the current annual meetups started in hotels. Seems like we might be able to find one that could provide a decent sized meeting room for poker and isn't too far from several of the popular distilleries to visit. Unless we have a KY local who wants to host.

Similarly, I'm taking a trip with some old college friends this May. We rented an Airbnb in Kentucky that features an amazing house and backyard, and hired a guide service for the bourbon trail.

Distilleries and sampling during the day, cards, horse race, shuffleboard, fires, bbq and more drinks at night.

I think in most of those cases, the host has an “in” with the place through a professional or personal association to help sell an event that involves drinking, gambling, late and often loud evenings. That may be a tougher sell coming in cold unless it’s a place like @Klobberer mentioned that deals with events like this on the routine.

I showed Mrs.Baroo the link to the setup that @Klobberer said was interesting and she said “Oh…you guys are fancy” :ROFL: :ROFLMAO:

I had a small pour when I visited @wolfpack place, and it was delicious. Most stores by me only got 2-4 bottles, so nobody was really able to get any. such a shame.

I actually have a bottle (was easy to find in Oregon)! I bought the c923 and an older store pick, and have been working on finishing off the store pick first
