"The inaugural Kentucky Bourbon Country Auction & Celebration (KBCA) is rolling into town February 13-15, 2026, and it's not just another whiskey weekend. This is a three-day celebration of America's native spirit timed perfectly with the nation's 250th anniversary, and every dollar raised goes to supporting veterans, first responders, and their families through the Bob Woodruff Foundation. Translation? You can bid on rare bottles, sip once-in-a-lifetime pours, and help fund mental health care, housing assistance, and employment services for the people who've served our country."
"KBCA founder Andrew Varga didn't set out to create just another collector's playground. He wanted to honor bourbon's deep roots in American history while channeling its cultural and financial power toward something meaningful. The result is one of the most comprehensive public bourbon auctions ever assembled, featuring iconic distilleries, private collectors, and once-in-a-lifetime experiences, all benefiting the Bob Woodruff Foundation."
