When you sign up they put your name on a new barrel and keep track of its aging. When your barrel is bottled, they send you the dates and you get a free tour of the distillery. After the tour you get to dip a bottle from your batch in the wax and they have special ambassador labels for them. Also you get gifts at Christmas every year. I’ve gotten everything from Makers Mark wrapping paper, to socks, to Christmas sweaters for the bourbon bottle. (I’m actually an “Ambassador for Life” now, since my barrel came up years ago).
don't know what the brand was but my dad did that with the new place they opened in Newport... He had to wait 5 or so years to get his bottle but I think he was happy with it.
