We visited @BluegrassTavernLex while we were in Lexington. It was definitely one of the best bars that we’ve been to, with over 700 Bourbon selections and awesome bartenders! The staff is very knowledgeable about their (massive) selection, and unbelievably quick as well. . Had some Stitzel Weller juice in the form of an old Weller 12 (the raised glass above the label is what indicates that it was distilled at Stitzel Weller). Unfortunately, it was one of the best pours I've ever had (I'd grade it a 97). I say unfortunate because there's little of it left obviously, the distillery closed in 1992. Though all of Weller's products are very good, the 12 is the best in my opinion (personally, I probably like it even more than William Larue Weller from the BTAC). And this particular pour was even smoother than the usual 12...had a great nose too. As more people have learned of its similarities to Pappy and the Van Winkle mash bill, all of Weller's products have become difficult to find on the shelf. But if you're ever in Lexington, I highly recommend checking out @bluegrasstavernlex. . #Follow @WhiskeyJourneys #WhiskeyJourneys #FollowMe . . 📷 @WhiskeyJourneys . . . . #BluegrassTavern #BourbonBar #Lexington #Kentucky #StitzelWeller #Distillery #KYBoubonTrail #Weller12 #Dusty #Bourbon #Whiskey #Pappy #PappyVanWinkle #VanWinkle #BuffaloTrace #WhiskeyBar #KentuckyBourbonTrail #Sign #KentuckyBourbon #Bar #Tavern #Cocktail #Alcohol #Liquor #Booze #Cocktails #Cheers . @WhiskeyJourneys @BluegrassTavernLex @BuffaloTrace @BuffaloTraceDistillery @EagleRareLife @SazeracRye @PappyAndCo @JVanWinkle7 @KentuckyBourbonTrail (at Lexington, Kentucky)
