Is there a bourbon release party at the Liquor Barn in Hamburg? If so, when? What bottles are being featured? How many can I get?

This Saturday, February 9 Liquor Barn in Hamburg is having a Bourbon Release Party for a few new flavors.

The list of bottles are as follows:

  • Michter’s 20 Year
    •  Master Distiller Pam Heilmann personally selects these barrels for the very limited bottling of Michter’s 20 Year Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon. Intense notes of black cherry, rich molasses, honeysuckle, roasted pecans, toasted charred oak.
  • Old Forester “The President’s Choice”
    • The President’s Choice was historically, and is today, driven by the palate of Old Forester’s current President. Each barrel in the modern iteration is hand-selected by Campbell Brown, Old Forester president and fifth generation Brown family member, under the guidance of Master Taster, Jackie Zykan.

  • Old Fitzgerald 14 Year
