Way back 7 years ago i joined the MM Ambassador club. Got my name on a barrel plate with my member number and barrel number. Now the wait started. I got many MM freebies in the mail like you MM ambassadors do for your bottles.
Anyways
This past April i get an envelope in the mail Inside was my MM Golden ticket telling me my barrel is ready.
WOOO HOOO
I do the RSVP to them and set my dat to July 16/16. I went up to Lumpys house for the weekend and we went to the MM Distillery sat morning, upon entering i showed the guy at the counter my ticket and he took me to the back room where the days MM Ambassadors get their RSVP checked.
I got this little badge with my name, a ticket for Micheal and off we go.
I was kinda bummed because i thought (like a few others in line) that the barrel would be tapped to fill our bottles
I was told that all the rsvp barrels were put together for that day and bottled
Oh well its all good. You can get 4 bottles with your name on it for HOW MUCH $48 ea...Yikes
Oh well i got a bottle and Micheal got one. I also got a bottle of clear MM and got to dip our bottles.
So all in all the tour was cool, the gift shop was for tourists (like me) and making $$$ like crazy.
We did have a good time though.
Then we went to the range where i put 350 rounds through my 9mms. Yup a lifetimer.
Couple of bad guys gone. (yeah a few wild ones)
