Valentine’s Day is a time to let that special someone know how much you love them by giving them Valentine’s cards, chocolate, and maybe a foot rub or two. But, while that’s all well and good, wouldn’t they rather get a well-made bottle of whiskey instead? The folks at Kentucky’s J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery definitely think so.

Instead of the usual box of chocolates this Valentine’s Day, give the gift of whiskey this Valentine’s Day thanks to the J. Mattingly 1845 Distillery’s custom bourbon experience.  Available online or in person at the distillery in Frankfort,  Kentucky. Simply choose a bottle and have it filled with Double Staved Bourbon or rye. Choose your wax color, and then the folks at J. Mattingly will add a personal message to each bottle and ship it to your love’s door.
