Heavy, late-July rain storms across the midwest caused widespread flooding in Kentucky over the past week, resulting in fallen trees, destroyed utility lines, and 37 deaths.
An upcoming auction of prized bourbon aims to bring relief to those affected by the flood. In a joint effort between the Kentucky Distillers’ Association, the charitable spirits group Bourbon Crusaders, and bourbon author Fred Minnick, a number of private barrel expressions will be available for sale to benefit the Team Eastern Kentucky Flood Relief Fund.
