Bourbon used to be a party drink. Then somebody put it in a leather chair. This one's the bottle you bring.
Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
T&A
Bourbon
Tracey & Andrew's Finest
Small Batch · Nelson County, Kentucky

Crafted for the 4 billion men (and everyone else) who love T&A. Who loves T&A? WE DO!

T&A is the bottle you bring. Pool. Porch. Tailgate. Boat. Nobody here can tell you what “legs on the glass” means, and nobody’s going to ask you to. Two questions: does it taste good, and does it make the night better with your people around you? That’s the whole test. If you’d rather sit alone with a cigar and discuss the color, there are two thousand other bourbons for that. This one’s for the rest of us.

The bottle — poolside, where it belongs.

The bourbon is finished. Four years in charred oak in Nelson County — and good right now, straight out of the thief. The only thing between you and a bottle is 9,939 signatures.

Roll the tape

The board is a party. Most seats are empty.

No AI today — Beau congratulated the names who actually showed up. Tracey’s at work. The bottle’s at the pool, where it belongs.

Bourbon forgot how to have company. Everybody else sells one guy alone with a glass. We’re recruiting the cookout.

Jewels has six. Ole Grumpy has four. Most of the roster has zero. Your only job is send your link to the friend who still thinks bourbon has to be serious. Then stop.

The board decides. Nobody is drawn.

The Movement

10,000 names and we start bottling.

founders and counting
0Goal: 10,000 — then we bottle

Top Founders

  1. Be the first name on the board.

This isn't a mailing list — it's the founding roster of the anti-snob rebellion. Every friend who joins on your link bumps you up the board, and climbing it puts you in the show: weekly shoutouts in the videos, the top 100 referrers get their names on a barrel head in Nelson County, and the top 10 come on set with Tracey and Andrew. Nobody is drawn. Nobody is picked. Recruit accordingly.

What happens at 10,000

Exactly what we do the week the counter hits ten thousand.

No metaphors here. This is the part you should be able to check us on.

  1. We drive to Nelson County. The whiskey is already there, in barrels, four years into charred oak. Nothing has to be distilled, and nothing has to keep aging. We are going to pick it up.
  2. We pull the barrels. Small batch means we taste and select the barrels that go into the batch, rather than dumping everything we own into one run.
  3. A licensed bottler fills, labels, and ships. We do not ship whiskey out of a garage. Bottling and fulfillment go through a licensed facility, under the rules of the state doing the receiving. That is also why some states will not be shippable — we will tell you which before you ever pay anything.
  4. Your founder number is your place in line. Founder #7 is offered a bottle before founder #700. The number you claim today is the number you keep, and it does not move.

Joining costs nothing and is not a pre-order — no card, no deposit, no obligation to buy. When bottles are ready, founders get the first offer in number order, and you can say no. You must be 21 or older, and everything ships subject to the alcohol laws of your state.

You thought you knew

Everybody assumes they know what T&A stands for.

It's Tracey & Andrew. Obviously.

The part that isn't a joke

A Beam by blood. A Smith by name.

Bourbon didn't start in a lounge. It started on porches and in coolers, with people who laughed harder than they worked — until the suits moved it indoors and taught everybody to be scared of drinking it “wrong.”

Andrew is 8th-generation. His grandfather gave his life to the still — and was serious about exactly one thing: how the bourbon got made. Ask him about ice in your glass and he'd just smile:

"Drink it however you like — just drink mine."

Ice, Coke, straight, in a Solo cup at the lake — nobody here is looking down at your glass. We're too busy looking at who's in the chair next to you. The fun stops at the distillery door and nowhere else.

Quality control

Every barrel is inspected by a professional.

This is Beau's department. He can't legally taste it, doesn't technically work here, and has never once been wrong about a person — which is more than most master distillers can say. He signed off on the whole batch.

His verdict: it's ready. He's been saying so for a while. Nobody listens to the dog until 10,000 people agree with him.

The two who built it

A woman, a man, and a bourbon they take far too seriously.

Tracey and Andrew started a whiskey company. Neither of them can get through a meeting, and one of them keeps flying to the beach to photograph the bottle. The bourbon, somehow, is excellent.

Tracey

Co-Founder · Head of Meetings That Never Happen

Calls the meeting. Sets the agenda. Says "okay, today we are NOT laughing." Laughs. The barrel strategy remains, to this day, undiscussed.

Andrew

Co-Founder · Director of Label Photography

Believes the bottle deserves the perfect light. Currently sunburned, knee-deep in surf, on day nine of a one-day shoot. Undeterred. Says the product photographs better wet.

The bourbon itself

Four years in charred Kentucky oak. Ready now.

Named for the two who built it — small-batch Kentucky straight bourbon, made the slow way and taken very, very seriously. It's finished, it's resting in Nelson County, and it's excellent today. The only thing standing between you and a bottle is the rest of the 10,000.
