“This will be our third consecutive year partnering with Four Roses for Flower Hour,” said Eddie Kraft, owner of Nanz & Kraft. “Where else can one come shop for their significant other for Valentine’s Day, eat and sip on bourbon with a Hall of Fame Master Distiller and contribute to making Louisville a vibrant, beautiful city all in one place?”
That’s a good quote right there, it certainly got my attention. B and I are refraining from Valentine’s Day giving this year because good gracious buying and then renovating a house (even on a small scale) takes every penny we’ve got. In other words “We bought each other a house, happy Valentine’s Day!” If you’re not in that boat though you should definitely check out the Four Roses Flower Hour. Mr. Kraft is right, sip bourbon, buy your sweetie a gift and help beautify Louisville. Win-win-win.
Valentine’s Day may mean treating a sweetheart to roses, but this year gift givers can spoil themselves a little too as they shop during Four Roses Flower Hour, an after-hours Bourbon tasting, shopping night and reception at Nanz & Kraft Florist. The event will take place on Thursday, February 11 from 6-8 p.m. right before the last-minute Valentine’s rush.
Flower Hour will occur during Nanz & Kraft’s one-night special extended hours at the St. Matthews location, which offers an extensive selection of flowers and gifts. Shoppers will receive a shot at getting their beloved a dozen roses before Valentine’s Day while they enjoy Four Roses
bourbon tastings and mingle with master distiller, Jim Rutledge.To participate in Four Roses Flower Hour, shoppers are asked to contribute a minimum $5 donation to Brightside. The donation includes Bourbon tastings, hors d’oeuvres and a 10 percent discount on all Nanz & Kraft items. Rutledge will be on hand to meet guests, discuss Bourbon or
sign Four Roses memorabilia.
