November 5, 2026
We've written our enthusiasm for them. Now you can come taste them for yourself. We get a small portion from each L&K barrel pick.
The Loch & K(e)Y Society was one of the first barrel programs in the country, and we are honored to be part of this exclusive community. David Kreiss, has been an avid collector of L&K picks for over 15 years, with whiskeys such as Blanton’s, Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, Weller, Four Roses, Old Elk, Dark Arts, Knob Creek, Russell's Reserve, Pinhook, Peerless, Elijah Craig, Angel’s Envy, Old Forester, Found North, Sagamore, Copper & Cask, Maker’s Mark, Compass Box, Kaiyo, Laphroaig, and the list goes on and on. Bottom line, the L&K Society gets access to some of the best barrels in the industry. We think you'll get some great flavors from them.
