2023 John G. Carlisle Bottled in Bond Celebration & Competition

In 2022, we hosted the inaugural John G. Carlisle Bottled in Bond Competition & Celebration, which gathers regional bourbon lovers to taste and vote for their favorite bottled-in-bond bourbon in commemoration of the Bottled in Bond Act of 1897 and John G. Carlisle, who was instrumental in shaping the act into law.

On Friday March 3rd, 2023, the event returns as we celebrate the 126th anniversary!

This year, we will taste three blind pours, showcasing the finest bottled-in-bond variations from across the nation. As we sip and savor, we’ll collectively decide on the year’s best BIB and award the prestigious 2023 John G. Carlisle Award.

Every ticket-holder’s voice counts!

Pours will be accompanied by specially crafted charcuterie boards to complement each flavor profile.
