2017 Bourbon & Barbecue:

Tennessee Whiskey and Tennessee War

This year’s theme is “Tennessee Whiskey and Tennessee War”. We will welcome George Dickel Ambassador Brian Downing who will conduct a tasting of six George Dickel Tennessee Whiskeys.  We will also feature famous Civil War historian and storyteller Tom Cartwright who will speak on “Tennessee War”.  And we are very happy to once again have bourbon expert, author, and historian Mike Veach with us who will serve as our master of ceremonies. The program will begin at 4:15 on the patio overlooking the Ohio River and yes, we have a tent to protect us from the sun and any moisture that might fall from the sky. 

Immediately after the presentation at approximately 5:30, we will begin serving a buffet style BBQ picnic dinner that will be a delight to everyone’s taste buds!  Master BBQ chefs Marc Oca and Art Boerner will slow cook and smoke pork and ribs all day Saturday just for us.
