Discover the Kentucky bourbon trail from several perspectives with this private half-day tour. Begin with a river cruise, and see distilleries from a unique and scenic angle on the water. After the boat tour, visit the Buffalo Trace Distillery to learn about how Kentucky bourbon is made and aged. Hear stories about bourbon history and how the spirit became the popular drink it is today.
Take a walk through bourbon history alongside E.H. Taylor Jr., the man who revolutionized the industry. From the Old Taylor House; to the OFC Building and OFC Fermenter #7, nicknamed “Old Taylor”; and finally to Warehouse C, you will see both the remnants and still-standing structures of what Taylor built, learn about his desire for perfection and purity in the bourbon making processes, and how he helped craft the industry as it is today.
