Think Wisely. Drink Wisely. ®
You can choose from two different tour options where our experienced Bourbon Hosts will guide you through the history and heritage of America’s original whiskey. After your tour, stay for a tasting of some of our most critically acclaimed whiskeys.
Learn about both the fascinating history of Bourbon as well as the story behind Heaven Hill Distillery, family owned and operated since 1935. Our Host will lead you to Rickhouse Y discussing how we age and produce some of the world’s finest Bourbons. Later, you will enjoy three of our nationally acclaimed American whiskeys, each from a different mashbill, in the world’s largest Bourbon Barrel.
Book this tourDuring this 40-minute experience, your host will share a short history of Heaven Hill Distillery. You’ll then discuss the unique characteristics of four of our premium or limited release American whiskeys, focusing on the color, aroma, taste and finish. When your tasting is complete, you can take your tasting glass home as a keepsake.
