Meet the owner

David Erickson


Operated by David Erickson, the Blind Pig Establishments have relatively quickly become a staple of Bardstown, Kentucky.

David is a “brought in” from Minnesota with a business and medical history along with ironically a connection to bourbon via his grandfather who serviced South Dakota bootlegger’s vehicles in order to move moonshine to the South.

David and his interest in bourbon quickly opened up The Blind Pig Bourbon Market (bourbon specialty store) fell into his lap and quickly became very successful. Opening in (Jan. 2022) of my newest venture The Blind Boar Shanty (The Blind Pig’s rebellious HYBRID cousin) described as a men’s speciality clothing boutique and MORE (finer white liquor -gin-rum-tequila) and wine” plus a large retail/merchandise mix (Something for EVERYONE).

I sincerely hope you enjoy your Bardstown Blind Pig and Boar visits!
