Nice tour good booze and fun people .
Just finished my last bottle of Barrel House Bourbon, at noon. We did the tour a few years ago and were the only ones on the tour. We LOVED it. I bought a few bottles and wish i would have bought more. LOL, i told my wife yesterday that i was driving from PA to KY just to get more Barrel House. Keep up the GREAT work, we will be back again, your Barrel House Select and Devil John Dark Shine rank up there in my top.
Really nice small batch distillery. Great tour and tasting. Well worth the sma.fee.for the tour and tasting. Devil John's Dark Shine and the Bourbon were our favorites.
