Tickets are now on sale for a charity bourbon raffle hosted by CASA of Lexington, featuring an extremely rare grand prize: a Woodford Reserve Kentucky Derby 150: Baccarat Edition bottle with a halter worn by Kentucky Derby 150 winner Mystik Dan. 

Produced to commemorate the 150th running of the Kentucky Derby, the bottle is one of only 150 produced. The grand prize is a triple-barreled American whiskey aged in three distinct casks – the traditional bourbon barrel, a cognac cask and an exclusive barrel seasoned within the Kentucky Derby Winner’s Circle. 

Each of the limited bottles is showcased in a crystal decanter crafted by artisans of the French Maison Baccarat and presented in a custom leather carrying case.

Set for Wednesday, April 30, proceeds from the Bourbon Raffles, Serial No. 007 raffle will support CASA of Lexington’s mission to provide advocacy for abused and neglected children in seven central Kentucky counties: Bourbon, Fayette, Garrard, Jessamine, Lincoln, Scott and Woodford.

Along with the grand prize, other raffle prizes will include a Four Roses 20-year Visitor Center OBSV Private Barrel; limited edition green, blue, and red bottles of Blanton’s La Maison du Paris; a 2021 Old Forester Birthday Bourbon; a Van Winkle Special Reserve Lot “B” 12-year; an Old Rip Van Winkle 10-year; and two 2024 bottles of Maker’s Mark Cellar Aged.

“Every ticket purchased for this raffle helps ensure that abused and neglected children in our region have the support and care they deserve,” CASA of Lexington Executive Director Melynda Jamison said in a news release. “We look forward to seeing the positive impact this raffle will have on these children’s lives.”

The raffle is held in partnership with Elizabethtown-based nonprofit Give 270, and is hosted through the organization’s BourbonRaffles.org platform.

“Through our signature bourbon raffle events, we’ve been fortunate to raise significant funds for CASA of the Heartland, benefiting residents in our area of service. Now, it’s a pleasure to use the BourbonRaffles.org platform to support the incredible work of CASA of Lexington, just a short drive away,” Kenny Rambo, co-founder of Give 270, said. “We aim to build on the success of past raffles and achieve a great outcome for this wonderful organization.”

The raffle will take place live on Give 270’s Facebook page and YouTube channel on Wednesday, April 30, at 8 p.m. Tickets are $100 and will be available for purchase until 7 p.m. on the day of the drawing. A total of 1,000 tickets are available for the raffle. Subject to availability, there is no limit to the number of tickets purchased per person.
