Governor's Choice Kentucky Gift Basket | Premium Bourbon, Gourmet Foods & Derby Keepsakes

Highlights

• A showstopping bourbon pie. The Adam Matthews Baking Company Bourbon Chocolate Chip Pecan Pie is the sweet centerpiece of this basket. Rich pecans and melty chocolate chips meet a warm hint of bourbon in a full-size pie made for sharing.
• Raise a toast the Kentucky way. A Traditional Mint Julep Cup in non-tarnish finish pairs with an Evan Williams Mini Mint Julep Mix. It's everything they need for a classic julep on Derby Day or any day!
• A keepsake for the coffee table. Kentucky: A Photographic Journey by Linda Doane captures the Bluegrass State's horse farms, racetracks, and rolling landscapes in beautiful photographs. It's a gift they'll flip through again and again.
• Bring bourbon country to the kitchen. Bourbon Country Gourmet Sauce, Bourbon Barrel Foods Bourbon Smoked Sea Salt, and Dan-O's Seasoning add bold Kentucky flavor to everything from grilled steaks to roasted veggies.
• Cook up Southern classics. Weisenberger Mills Cornbread Mix comes from the oldest commercial mill in Kentucky. Pair it with Kentucky Burgoo Hearty Stew Mix, a true Bluegrass tradition, for a cozy supper that tastes like home.
• Dips, spreads, and morning coffee. Kentucky Dill Mix whips up a zesty dip in minutes. Lucky Clover Farm jam from Richmond, Kentucky, brightens biscuits and toast, and a Red Hot Roasters coffee packet from Louisville makes the perfect morning pour.
• Savor bourbon sweets. Woodford Reserve Bourbon Chocolates (4 pc.), Najla's Kentucky Bourbon Glazed Pecan Shortbread, and crunchy Bourbon Pecan Brittle bring the rich flavor of Kentucky's famous spirit to dessert time.
• Unwrap timeless Kentucky candy. Bauer's Modjeskas wrap soft marshmallow in buttery caramel, a beloved Louisville tradition. Ruth Hunt Chocolate Pretzels and Amuse Mints round out the candy shop favorites.
• Snack like a local. Jockey's Delite Snack Mix and Najla's Gone Nuts Gourmet Spiced Nuts deliver a crunchy, savory mix that's not too spicy and not too sweet.
• Keep a piece of Derby history. The Dirty Old Horseshoe from Churchill Downs is an authentic track souvenir from the home of the Kentucky Derby. Hang it up for good luck long after the treats are gone!
