If you are part of the Sazerac Barrel Select program, April 5 is an important deadline to keep in mind. Taking a moment to update your preferences now could position you for one of the most distinctive private bourbon experiences available this year.
On April 9, the next Sazerac Barrel Select drawing will open, and 100 members will be selected for an exclusive opportunity to step inside the speakeasy style doors of the Warehouse D Annex for a private barrel selection experience.
What You Need to Do Before April 5
To be automatically included in the drawing, members should complete the following steps:
Log into your SBS dashboard
Mark your status as Ready to Purchase
Add Buffalo Trace to your Brand Preferences
Completing all three steps is required for eligibility. Missing any of them will exclude you from the drawing.

What Selected Members Receive
Those chosen in the drawing will gain access to a private barrel selection experience, including a guided tasting featuring expressions from the Buffalo Trace Distillery Prohibition Collection. Participants will also have the opportunity to purchase bottles from their selected barrel through their preferred retailer.
In addition, allocations are typically added to winner accounts within 24 hours after selection results are posted, allowing for a quick turnaround.
Additional Opportunity for Participants
A limited time promotion is also tied to the April 9 shop opening. Members who watch the SBS video, locate the hidden passcode, and enter it in their dashboard can unlock a 15 percent discount on the Sazerac Barrel Select Collection in the distillery’s online shop.
Why This Experience Stands Out
Experiences inside the Warehouse D Annex are not part of standard visitor offerings. These barrel selection events combine historical context, guided tastings, and hands on participation, creating a level of access that is rarely available to the public.
For current SBS members, April 5 is the key action date. Ensuring your profile is updated in advance will allow you to participate when the drawing opens on April 9.
