Completed in 1912 at 534 feet long and capable of housing 33,000 barrels Warehouse B at Castle and Key Distillery is recognized as the longest bourbon rickhouse of its kind in the world! When you enter the mammoth building your mind whirls as you try to comprehend the size of it! The smell of millions of angel shares have permeated every nook and cranny of it wrapping all that enter in the spirits of barrels past. The light play, the dust, the wonderful aroma and the weathered wood tones converge making this an incredible experience which I am sharing in this painting. Col. Taylor’s plan to amaze the guests as they approached Taylorton Station with the immense size of Warehouse B was a rousing success that still accomplishes its goal today.
Have you ever entered a space and been truly awestruck by the history of it? For me, after years of trying to get inside Warehouse B that was how I felt. I had this painting dancing in my head from the first time I saw the imposing brick structure. This was the outcome.
