We are VERY excited to share that we’re working with our new friends, Cathead Distillery, for the next Bourbon & Blues event! This Mississippi-born distillery makes a variety of liquors, including the beautiful Old Soul Bourbon Whiskey 🥃 More information to come.

In the meantime, do you know what a “Cathead” is? The term “Cathead” is a compliment in Mississippi, first coined back in the day by blues musicians as a nod to artists they respect. Mississippi artists and musicians went on to use “Catheads” in many forms of folk art, as a way to pay the rent and share their legacies. What a story!

We cannot wait to work with them and continue bringing the bourbon and blues to Savannah! 🎸🎶

Half of the B&B team traveled to New Orleans over the weekend for adventure and exploring! ⚜️🥃 Tony [and his lovely wife] toured the The Sazerac House Distillery and, boy, was it an experience! Here are some pictures of the tour.

A mini history lesson: Sazerac was started in the 1600s, in France, where they made Cognac, then brandy. In the 1890s the company, now in NOLA, began to bottle and market America’s first cocktail—the Sazerac cocktail—which is basically an Old Fashioned made with rye whiskey. Today, Sazerac operates 9 distilleries. Among their brands are some of the most highly prized spirits including Blanton’s, Van Winkle, E.H. Taylor, and Buffalo Trace.

It was a blast! Tony didn’t leave without trying his very best to get the recipe of the mash bill, which is a highly guarded secret. It was unsuccessful 😅🥃
