“Too much of anything is bad…
…but too much good whiskey is barely enough.” – Mark Twain
The event will be held at ParksEdge Event Center in Jackson, Ohio. Our guests will enjoy an array of Buffalo Trace expressions, including Blanton’s. We will be guided through this tasting by Dominic Guglielmi, a world-renowned Blanton’s collector and author of a newly published book, Warehouse H: The Story of Blanton’s Bourbon: America’s Most Influential Whiskey. Learn more about this book at Guglielmi’s website: www.warehouseH.com.
A prime rib dinner, delicious sides and hors d’oeuvres will be provided by the ParksEdge Event Center. Beveridge’s will be provided throughout the evening.
After the tasting and dinner, you will have the fortunate opportunity to bid in a lively auction on a selection of desirable Buffalo Trace expressions as well as an assortment of other whiskies and other special items that will be of interest to you. Live Auction Items: 1 Pappy Van Winkle 15-year-old, 1 Eagle Rare 17-year-old, 1 Blanton’s Black, 1 Blanton’s Gold, 1 Blanton’s Green, 1 Blanton’s Red.
The price for the evening is $300 per individual, $500 per couple and $1500 per table of 8. Proceeds of the event support the Archon Alumni Scholarship Fund. Our alumni association provided $12,000 for scholarships in both 2023 and 2024 respectively.
