Over the weekend we headed to Versailles, Kentucky, and toured the Woodford Reserve bourbon distillery.

| Fermentation happening: yeast is making the bubbles appear on the top of the bourbon. These are massive, two-story tall wooden drums. |

| Copper cauldrons that get the bourbon to the ideal proof. |

 |
| The main storage facility that hold thousands of barrels, each aging for just over seven years. Each barrel hold 118 bottles worth of bourbon. You can buy one for eight to ten-thousand dollars. |
 |
| As I recall, the Woodford Reserve warehouse stores about $45 million worth of bourbon at any given time | | | |
