Okay, this is really a shot-in-the-dark, but I'm wondering what I may be getting sometime in the future--here's the story:
My wife's cousin lives in Kentucky, and is saving some kind of "special" bourbon bottle for me. Supposedly his employer got a case of "uncut" bourbon and gave each employee one bottle as part of their Christmas bonus. Well, knowing my fondness for bourbon (and his distaste for it), he is saving this bottle for my next Kentucky trip.
The first details I heard (though the grapevine) were that it was "uncut" and it was "bourbon". Okay, I'm thinking Booker's, or possibly even Stagg. Then my mother-in-law made some calls and found out it was "Maker's Mark".
So here's my question: what are the chances this guy got a private bottling of Maker's Mark done? Do they even do that!?
I'd call him myself, but I don't want to appear like I'm frothing at the mouth at his gift, and I really don't have much contact with them.
Any thoughts?
