How To Score a Taste of Pappy Van Winkle in Fort Thomas

The Midway Café is hosting a 1920’s Prohibition Party on December 1, 2017. Entry time is 9:00 p.m.

"We're releasing eight bottles of Pappy Van Winkle," said Erika Kraus, one of the owners of Midway. "We're really excited to be able to offer them to our local friends and customers who have been so great to us."

The Midway was able to acquire the extremely rare bourbon from a distributor. They'll have the 10 year, 12 year, 15 year, and 23 year available.

"We wanted to price the bourbon for people to enjoy, not just to sit on our shelves," said Staci Edmonds, another owner of Midway.
