For those of you that knew my dad, he was a bourbon connoisseur of sorts. My dad took interest in bourbon many, many years ago. Maker's Mark was his favorite beyond favorites. We visited that distillery before I even knew what being twenty-one meant. (He actually owns a barrel there that's been aged to perfection & is ready for pick-up this December, but I'll save that for another post.) Three years ago my parents came to visit me in Kentucky over Labor Day weekend & we toured the Woodford Reserve and the Four Roses Distillery as a 'birthday present.'
