Welcome to Blackout Barrel Company, Blackout Racing Stable, and Barrels for a Cause

At Blackout Barrel Company and Blackout Racing Stable, we combine our passion for thoroughbred racing with our love for bottling exceptional spirits. Through Blackout Barrel Company, we proudly bottle premium straight bourbon and rye whiskey, each made with the highest standards of craftsmanship. Our flagship whiskey features Belle Tapisserie, the beloved racehorse we once owned, proudly displayed on the label as a symbol of our journey and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

Blackout Racing Stable is based at the historic Churchill Downs, the iconic home of the Kentucky Derby—a place where legends are made and history is written. From the racetrack to the whiskey brand, we embrace the rich traditions that make Kentucky the heart of horse racing and bourbon.

In addition to our racing and whiskey brand, we are committed to giving back through Barrels for a Cause, our 501(c)(3) nonprofit. A portion of the proceeds from every bottle of Blackout whiskey goes toward supporting causes that align with our values, helping create lasting change in the communities we care about.

Inspired by Kentucky’s rich tradition of whiskey and horse racing, we bottle spirits that celebrate heritage, quality, and community. Welcome to Blackout.
