Doing the Maturation matters tour in November where they take you into the rickhouse and let you sample from a barrel. Hoping this is a good tour too! I’d love to meet Baker, Fred or Freddie. Cheers!
We did this tour last week. Our guide said you can't drink out of the glass, but he was going to turn the other way and he can't control what happened when he wasn't looking. I drank out of the glass :)
Awesome! It’s a great time. They definitely didn’t have the 15yr. I can’t remember if they had the 12yr or not. I think the 18yr was only available to people who went to the dinner. Might be different now.
The tour and the dinner were two separate events. The tour was their standard $20 distillery tour. The dinner was a special event. Apparently they have dinners like that every few months
Did they have Knob Creek 12 year for sale at the distillery? Planning a trip soon and really want to find some 12 year KC.
I think they did, but I don’t recall there being a bunch. If you can’t get it there, should be able to snag it at a nearby liquor store
this looked like a great little weekend get away!
Also LOL ???? Pouring it in your hands to get around the rules xD
🤣
Cool video I live in Colorado in June my wife and I celebrate 10 years going to Makers Mark distillery 😀🟥🥃
Fantastic! Congrats!
Did you do the "Behind the beam" experience $350 one? Or something else? Can regular tours do the knob creek bottle your own? Thanks
It was just the regular tour, you can bottle your own during that tour. The dinner event was something completely separate.
Does bottling your own cost extra over the price of the tour?
@jweems10 only the cost of the bottle
@jweems10 only the cost of buying the bottle

That would be an awesome experience. I’m sure it will be great!

Love it
Absolutely great video. How awesome would a straight barrel pour KC.
Thank you!
My wife and I are planning on going first week of April. Looking forward to it! Did the gift shop have KC 12, 15 or 18? Thanks for the video!

Sounds like a phenomenal tour! What tour package was it that allowed you to do so much? My interest is peaked!!!
