I think you saved me a trip. Your pics and story totally worked just dandy for making "a visit." HUZZAH!

Did you absolutely love Bardstown as much as we did? The charming downtown, the Catholic history--I would move there in a minute if my husband's job changed!

As a Kentucky girl, I love this post! Matt and I went to Maker's Mark in July 2005. Matt dipped a bottle (in the photo he looks like a mad scientist!) and saved it "for a special occasion." That occasion turned out to be our engagement four months later. We both autographed the label that night and the bottle is still on display in our china cabinet!

That looks like so much fun!! Remind me to replace the kiddos with bourbon one of these weekends!! ;)

Michele Renee - Three Sheets? Never heard of it. Do they need hosts? It's not hard at all to get me to three sheets. heh.

I love Bourbon. Whiskey Sour is good too. Very refreshing.

What a fun weekend! I have always wanted to tour the place, or the George Dickel one. I almost felt like I was watching an episode of Three Sheets! (on which they've gone to KY before).

Certainly looks like fun. And here I am, so thirs...

Certainly looks like fun.

And here I am, so thirsty! I forgot I was going to fix a drink before reading this.

AWESOME!

I did not know about slam dunking but I did know the rest ;-) Since Dad is a Kentucky boy and all.

Maker's Mark is delish! YAY for you! Love the pics and the tutorial from your eyes!!!

What a cool tour! I'm pretty sure I've never tasted bourbon before (whiskey I've tried when my friends pulled a switch on me once and got me a whiskey shot as a joke instead of a tequila shot...) Sounds like I'd prefer the taste of bourbon over whiskey (I tend to lean towards things on the 'sweeter' side...) :)

I'm pretty sure the cough is definitely part of the finish... ;)

Michelle - Mr. P was reading last night about Scotch making and I told him I'll taste anything if we can just GO TO SCOTLAND!

2009-06-22T11:09:05.874-05:00

Sounds like fun!

I'm not a whiskey/bourbon drinker unless it is mixed in something so I probably wouldn't do the tastings (and as a result would end up being the driver). Everyone loved me on the tours of the places that made scotch in Scotland because I gave my samples away.

Pop and Ice - If you are not a drinker, which I'm not either, you're going to need ice. Crushed ice will get melty quicker and enable you to drink bourbon easier.

The mint julep mix is sweet and once my ice starts to melt I enjoy them, but it is a strong drink (if you're not a drinker).

I suggest a Whiskey Sour - easily Google-able recipe.

2009-06-22T05:10:57.779-05:00

I've never tried bourbon, but if you tell me about your favorite mix, I'll give it a try. Unless it's supposed to be enjoyed *neat*. Or over ice only. I drink very little (weak alcohol constitution - inherited from Mom), but I know some of the terms which delights me this morning for some odd reason. I've got some left-over champagne and hopefully some OJ for an early morning nip. Maybe then I'll be able to go back to sleep.....
