Life in the Rickhouse

from Tales from the Hill · host Heaven Hill Distillery

Eight men and women. 66 barrels full of "new make" spirit are rolled into the rickhouse in a ballet of steel-toed boots and work gloves. Before day's end, the same amount of mature Bourbon barrels will be rolled out of the warehouse and loaded up to be readied for bottling. Heaven Hill's warehouse teams don't just roll barrels for work - they also do it for bragging rights each year at the World Championship Bourbon Barrel Relay during the Kentucky Bourbon Festival.
