Thank you for posting that. Do they have the distillery tours during this event, too?

I do not live that far away from there.

I'm not sure but I will check on that for ya. I know that they used to give out passports at any one of the distilleries on the Bourbon Trail and after getting a stamp from each one of the Bourbon Trail distilleries they would give you a T-shirt. I am not sure if they still do that but I will check on it also:hurts:

All of the distilleries are doing tours on friday and saturday but Tom Moore is reservation only and is booked for the weekend. The passport deal does still exist. You can get a passport from any one of the distilleries and once you have all of the stamps you fill out the paper and they will send you a shirt. The Tom Moore distillery is not required due to it being a reservation only tour
