The theme for this year’s bourbon mixer was Bourbon Masquerade. Attendees enjoyed music, Cajun food, and bourbon tastings from both craft and legacy distillers.
Also included in the night were raffles for rare bottles of bourbon from Pappy Van Winkle and Blanton’s. J. Todd Whitchurch was the lucky winner of the Pappy raffle, whilst Ian van Lierop went home with some iconic Blanton’s bottles.

Of course, the most important aspect of the evening was raising funds for the Coalition for the Homeless, a nonprofit organization seeking to end homelessness in Louisville.
Speaking about the evening’s success, the Executive Director of the Coalition for the Homeless, Natalie Harris, said: “We’re so grateful to everyone who contributed to the Bourbon Mixer. With homelessness on the rise, we need funding now more than ever. Thanks to our volunteers, donors, and sponsors, this event has now raised $750,000 over the past 11 years!”
The twelfth annual Bourbon Mixer will be hosted at The Olmsted on August 23rd, 2025.
