Tuesday’s Shot of Bourbon Trivia

bourbonbabe:

In 2012, Kentucky distilleries filled one million barrels with bourbon (1,007,703, to be precise) - the first time they’ve hit that milestone since 1973. That brought total inventory to 4.9 million barrels, which means there are more barrels of bourbon aging in the Bluegrass than there are people (4.3 million). Just one more reason it’s great to be a Kentuckian.

That’s pretty awesome.
