Buffalo Trace announced on Wednesday that the Kentucky distillery is offering a sweepstakes where a lucky winner can partake in an experience called Night at the Distillery, a guided tour with paranormal investigators. The tour includes a one-night stay in Albert Blanton’s home on October 31 and round-trip airfare.
“For more than 200 years, Buffalo Trace has been a place where history and legend intertwine,” Buffalo Trace Distillery General Manager Tyler Adams said in a statement. “Night at the Distillery invites guests to step into those stories and experience that connection firsthand. We set out to create an experience unlike anything we’ve done before, one that lets guests walk in the footsteps of generations past and explore the Distillery’s lore in a whole new light.”
The iconic whiskey brand is also offering a Night at the Distillery Self-Guided Tour for the price of $35. Trace will feature a self-guided trail that educates guests on the legends surrounding the distillery. Each stop along the trail features live entertainment, a tasting of 3 bespoke craft cocktails and ghost stories. The distillery experience includes a 1-liter bottle of Sazerac’s 100-proof rye and a reusable tote. The self-guided tour series will take place October 23 through 25 and October 30 through November 1. Those interested in purchasing tickets can visit the brand’s website here.
For the Private Ghost Hunting Experience, one winner and a guest join the paranormal investigators hired by Buffalo Trace to traverse one of the most haunted buildings on the brand’s campus. Guests will get to enjoy dinner in Frankfort, Kentucky, on Halloween night, coupled with a private after-hours ghost hunt. On November 1, guests will win a daytime tour of Buffalo Trace and a “premium shopping experience” at the brand’s gift shop. The whiskey brand intends to cover travel as well.
