[InsideHook] How would you like to taste an exclusive whiskey from one of Bardstown’s best distilleries? Better yet, how would you like to taste seven exclusive whiskeys from Bardstown’s best distilleries? That’s entirely possible during the first annual National Bourbon Week, which takes place June 11-16 in the Kentucky town nicknamed the "Bourbon Capital of the World."
While there will be plenty of tastings and activities, the focal point of National Bourbon Week will be the unveiling of the 2024 Bardstown Collection, a collaboration between seven area distilleries (up from five just two years ago). What makes them special? Fewer than 500 bottles will be available from each distillery, and many of the whiskey makers have gone out of their way to utilize unique blends, mash bills or age statements — such as the bottle from the James B. Beam Distilling Co, which is the oldest release ever by the company.
