Bourbon GIft Ideas For The Holidays

Bourbon Gift Ideas for the Holidays

It’s that time of year. Everybody’s on the look-out for some special bourbons on the shelves. Single Barrel offerings, barrel proof, maybe an old 1970’s bottle with the tax stamp on it hidden away buried deep in the bourbon spread at that little liquor store near your office that not that many bourbon fans go in to. A bottle of Pappy 23 lost in the Noah’s Mill line would be a darn good find.

But that bourbon fan of yours, or maybe just if you want some cool bourbon related items for that matter so here are some great places to find them. Some you’ll see are original pieces made right here in Kentucky from:

Jeff Irish hand crafts some of the coolest things made out of bourbon barrels. He makes full bars, and custom bourbon areas for restaurants and home bars, but he has some really cool pieces that he can mail ya anywhere you want to bourbon-ite your place.

Here are some book suggestions from me…I happen to know all these folks…we call ourselves, “Team Bourbon” back home here in Kentucky and we try and do book signings together when we can. They’re all available on Amazon.com and some on bn.com, but as in insider tip, check and see if the author has a personal facebook page or website, and you can probably order from them and get it signed…costs a little more, but why not right?
