ELIZABETHTOWN, Ky. – Give 270, an Elizabethtown nonprofit, announced that a rare bottle of Weller Millennium will be the grand prize in their latest 20/20 Unicorn raffle, set for Wednesday, Aug. 28.

A new release from Buffalo Trace Distillery, the ultra-aged Weller Millennium is a blend of vintage straight bourbon and wheat whisky that was distilled at the turn of the millennium. Paying homage to W.L. Weller, the release features a blend of whiskeys from 2000, 2003, 2005 and 2006. The Weller Millennium is presented in a crystal decanter with a custom-made, hand-etched crystal topper bearing W.L. Weller’s "W" stamp of quality, and is housed in an illuminated display case.

The 20/20 Unicorn raffles offer $20 tickets for two chances to win from a curated selection of 20 prizes from a specific distillery, including an exceptionally rare "unicorn" prize. In addition to the grand prize, each $20 ticket purchased in this raffle offers participants a chance to win from a curated assortment of other allocated and limited release Weller products. During the raffle, prizes numbered two through 20 will be drawn initially, with all tickets returning to the tumbler for an opportunity to win the Weller Millennium.  

The upcoming Unicorn raffle is set to take place live on Give 270’s Facebook page and YouTube channel. All proceeds will benefit Give 270’s work supporting worthwhile organizations and initiatives in central Kentucky. Tickets are available for purchase until 7 p.m. on the night of the drawing and there is no limit to the number of tickets purchased per individual.

"Through our 20/20 Unicorn raffles, we have provided the chance to win some truly remarkable bottles at an approachable price point, and we’re thrilled to give away this amazing new Weller release," said Eric Clemens, Board Chair of Give 270. “Best of all, every dollar raised from this raffle will go directly toward supporting valuable causes in our region."
