NATIONAL BOURBON HERITAGE MONTH

National Bourbon Heritage Month is an observance in the United States that calls for celebration of bourbon as America’s “Native Spirit”. On August 2, 2007, the US Senate declared September 2007 as “National Bourbon Heritage Month.” The bill, sponsored by Republican Senator Jim Bunning of Kentucky, passed by unanimous consent. The resolution calls for consumers who enjoy bourbon to do so responsibly and in moderation. The bill reinforces the 1964 Act of Congress that declared bourbon “America’s Native Spirit” by celebrating the family heritage, tradition and deep-rooted legacy that the bourbon industry contributes to the United States.

In honor of National Bourbon Heritage Month we will be having events every Wednesday throughout the month of September featuring Bourbon companies and experts doing tastings and product seminars.

Stay tuned to both our website and our Facebook page for more information on these unique and exciting events.
