The Barton 1792 Distillery edit

The distillery currently known as the Barton 1792 distillery was originally established in 1879.[7] As of June 2018, it comprises 51 buildings – most of which are rickhouses for barrel aging.[7]

Rickhouse collapse in 2018 edit

In June and July 2018 one of the 29 rickhouses at the Barton 1792 Distillery collapsed in two stages. The rickhouse had a storage capacity of about 20,000 barrels,[8] and contained about 18,000 when the first collapse occurred,[7] with each barrel having a capacity of 53 US gallons (200 L).[8] On June 22, 2018, about half of the building collapsed and caused about 9,000 barrels of spirits being aged there to fall with the structure, although about two-thirds of the barrels remained intact.[8][7][9][10] The facility had a 12-foot (3.7 m) deep basement to help contain spills, but some bourbon and brandy leaked into the nearby Withrow Creek and Beech Fork River, and about 800–1000 fish were killed.[8][7][9] The building had been constructed in the 1940s,[7] and one of the walls had been in the process of being repaired when the collapse occurred.[8] Sazerac was given a notice of state law violation for the spill and for failure to properly notify the authorities.[10] About two weeks later, on July 4, 2018, the remainder of the building collapsed. No one was injured in either collapse.[11]
