Celebrate the 75th Anniversary of the Grayslake Area Chamber of Commerce on Small Business Saturday, November 29th, with a truly special and exclusive bourbon release!
We partnered with Whiskey Acres Distilling Co. to create this one-of-a-kind spirit, which was meticulously finished in Jamaican Rum barrels and aged on Amburana staves. This unique, warming bourbon is perfect for the winter months, offering delightful, distinct notes of banana and cinnamon bark.
Bottles of the exclusive Chamber’s 75th Bourbon can ONLY be purchased and picked up from Beer Bazaar (107 Center Street, Grayslake, IL 60030) on Saturday, November 29th, at the earliest.
