I’m headed to Louisville next week for a couple of days to help select a couple of barrels for my local bottle shop. I’m the last one to fly out so I’m gonna spend some time solo downtown hitting up distilleries. Between Old Forrester, Michener’s and Angels Envy, which two have the best experience based on your visits? (Pic for attention)

Hit up evergreen liquors - they have a bar with some rare bottles of bourbon

like

If you go to Michters, go across the street and hit up Barrels and Billets for one of their bourbon blending experiences. Very cool.

like

I enjoyed the Angels Envy experience more than Michter’s

like

I didn’t hit those but I enjoyed the Evan Williams experience. (Went to Michters but they were booked so I didn’t make it past the gift shop.)

Also the funky bar at 21C hotel has a ridiculous bourbon list.

like

Definitely do Angel’s Envy and Old Forrester over Michter’s. Much more expansive tours. Michter’s was extremely underwhelming.

Would also recommend Rabbit Hole. They don’t have the history like many others so their modern distillery and story is pretty cool.

like

I second rabbit hole also they make an amazing old fashioned at the bar upstairs

And FTR, I know how to spell Michters but my phone “corrected” it.

There's a speakeasy called Hell over High Water in the back alley of old Forrester. Look for the white globe light. Go in and look for doorbell on the white wall.
Also, bring a huge suitcase and lots of bubblewrap and cardboard. You'll want it to take back all of the bottles that are only available at the distilleries.

like

You definitely wouldn't be the only one to do that

And stay at hotel Distil. Great Niche Marriott property. Doc Crowes has great seafood and BBQ (yes I know it doesn't make sense but go with it). Get the heaping chips app with BBQ pork.

Just remember, KY is the heart of the bible belt whose main exports are drinking, smoking, and gambling. We have a good time here.

Also recommending the Angel's Envy tasting, absolute blast and Michters etc is a short Uber ride away

like

For anyone wondering, I have tours at Angels Envy, Evan Williams (thanks for the rec), and will hit up the gift shops at OF and Michters. And also doing Willett but that’s in Bardstown.

I have someone planning my time in Bardstown so I’ll report back after for the results.

I have a few questions for people in consulting roles (both external/internal).

My partner is in corporate banking, but he wants to switch to a consulting/strategy-based role. I noticed people with those jobs typically have an MBA, and also majority of the job ads in similar roles has MBA as either a requirement or preferred qualification. So:

1) does MBA actually improve someone's chance in getting those roles?
2) are there any good Canadian MBA programs you'd recommend?

Thank you all!
