FAQs
About The Shortlist
The Shortlist is our members-only subscription club for bourbon lovers who want exclusive access to rare, one-of-a-kind bottles from Shortbarrel. Think private barrels, small-batch blends, and experimental finishes—shipped (or picked up) straight from the source.
A little of both. You’re joining a private club that guarantees you either 2 or 4 exclusive bottles per year, depending on your tier. These aren’t random bottles—they’re handcrafted releases made only for Shortlisters.
Shortlist bottles are exclusive to members only—they won’t be sold online, in stores, or even at the distillery. These include:
- Custom blends crafted just for the Shortlist
- Hand-selected single barrels
- Experimental finishes and small-batch projects
Whether you’re in the 2- or 4-bottle tier, these releases are made just for the group. No public access. No exceptions.
Membership Details
There are three plans:
- Starter: $375/year — 2 bottles shipped (or picked up) every 6 months
- Signature (Local): $600/year — 4 bottles, picked up quarterly
- Signature (National): $700/year — 4 bottles, shipped quarterly
Each membership is valid for 365 days from the date you join.
Nope. We’ll send you a heads-up before your year is up so you can renew if you’d like.
Not under normal circumstances. Allocations are carefully planned in advance. You’ll need to wait until your membership term ends to change tiers. That said, if something serious comes up (not just FOMO), email us at sales@shortbarrelbourbon.com and we’ll try to help.
No, we don’t offer pauses. You can always rejoin or change tiers at the end of your term.
Memberships are non-refundable. But we’ll keep you informed on what’s coming, and we think you’ll be glad you stayed in.
Yes! But depending on when you join, you may need to wait for the next release cycle to receive your first bottle.
Bottles & Delivery

- Signature: 4x/year (Sept, Dec, March & June)
We’ll send you an email when your bottle is ready—either with tracking info (for shipping) or pickup instructions (for local).

For designated limited drops, it’s first-come, first-served—but you’ll get a 48-hour head start over everyone else if you’re Signature and 24-hour if you’re Starter.
Only core membership bottles are guaranteed. Extra releases sell out fast. Be sure to check your email and act quickly when drops go live.

Yes! We’re not a traditional tasting room, but Shortlisters will get first invites to events, pickup days, and behind-the-scenes experiences.
