There wasn’t a list of what was available, but Brown Foreman is a sponsor as well and there was a separate auction for a bottle of Birthday Bourbon, so figured I’d buy two chances and at worst I’d get 2 bottles of Woodford Reserve. I happened to check my credit card last night, and there weren’t any charges for my chances, just for the raffle ticket my wife had bought. My wife said “It probably didn’t go through. Just buy two more”. So I bought two more and it still didn’t show up on the cc and I didn’t get a receipt or anything. She said try again, so I bought one more. Now the screen tells me I purchased five chances. When I woke up this morning I had a $150 charge.
They still haven’t emailed me what I got, so fingers crossed that I don’t get 5 bottles of Woodford (which is good, but I don’t need 5)
So they actually hand delivered my bourbons today. I got: 2 bottles of Elijah Craig, a Four Roses Small Batch, a 1792 Small Batch and a Jefferson’s Very Small batch. Nothing spectacular (I also had bottles of everything besides the Jefferson’s), but I’m not complaining.
