re: KY Bourbon Trail

You might get lucky and get a good bottle or two from one of the distilleries, but more than likely you won't. Once you see a couple they are all the same. We had a driver from Mint Julep and did a custom itinerary that included Buffalo Trace, 4 Rose tasting only (this was a let down and our driver agreed, nothing special about this stop), Three Boys distillery, it was a mom and pop operation, metal building. Guy was originally from Louisiana and we were able to fill bottles from a barrel, label and seal them for our purchase. This was really awesome. Fourth stop was Jeptha Creed. We had a private tour with the owners, drank from barrels in the rickhouse. It was a great tour.
