Well Folks, I don't want to steal Mike Veach's thunder but, I haven't found mention of this in any of the threads, and it is so very cool. We spoke yesterday, and he's either too busy or too shy to post this. Since silence is not one of my virtures, here goes...
The Kentucky Distillers' Association has inducted Mike Veach into the Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame to recognize his contributions to the stature, growth and public awareness of Kentucky Bourbon.
This September he'll receive an engraved miniature copper still, and his name will be added to the permanent Hall of Fame display at the Getz.
Mike will joining the likes of Jimmy Russell, Parker Beam, Booker Noe, Elmer T. Lee, etc....you get the idea.
I believe they made an excellent choice.
CONGRATULATIONS MIKE!!
