Ever wonder what goes into picking a bourbon barrel for release? Well, it’s not rocket science
but it sure is tasty.
For the first time Hollow Creek is releasing barrel proof High Cotton, and you can be a part of
the picking. Purchase tickets for our Barrel Pick Party, Saturday, June 10th . The evening starts at
7:30pm and up to 60 HCD friends will enjoy a sampling of 4 barrels of High Cotton, that are
ready for barreling. You’ll get to learn a bit about our bourbons, enjoy some like-minded
bourbon fans and a light charcuterie spread. Each participant will be given an unmarked poker
chip and after tasting a few samples, they can drop their chip in the basket for the barrel they
deemed worthy of bottling.
Double the fun!
Picking is just part of the fun. Join us for the bottling too.
We’ll host a smaller, more intimate group for the bottling of the “picked” barrel on Friday, June
16th from 7:30 to 9pm. The bottling experience allows bourbon fans to step up and take part in
the production. Folks will be able to bottle, label and seal the bourbon to be released the
following day. This small group will also reserve the first opportunity to purchase bottles from
this release.
Trifecta anyone?
Come on back on Saturday, June 17th when the barrel is officially released! It’s a great way to
share your bourbon experience with family and friends. Bring them out for a tasting and the
opportunity for them to purchase the limited quantity Single Barrel, Barrel Proof High Cotton
Bourbon. Tastings are free and it’s a fun way to start a Father’s Day weekend.
