Best Distilleries to visit/experience in Louisville

I don't have actual, first-hand experience but I have started to prepare for a trip to the area in the next year so keept that in mind when reading my post. I certainly will defer to anyone who has actually set foot in the distilleries. However, of the ones on Whiskey Row in Louisville, I feel like Angel's Envy would be the best. IIRC, their entire production facility is there unlike most who just have some of their operations. That way you get the full bang for your buck with a tour.

After that, I hear the Evan Williams Experience is the best for people who might not be huge whiskey fans if that makes sense. My top three would round out with Old Forrester. Their line is severely underrated and I read good.things about their tour. FYI, the Louisville Slugger museum is there nearby as well as the Mohammed Ali Museum. Check out google maps and.uii can see the whole area looks to be hopping with stuff to see and do.

If you go to Angel's Envy, there is a BBQ restaurant across the street inside the ballpark that is really great. Another one that it's that far from there and right across the street from Louisville Slugger is Michter's. I would say it was probably one of the best rye I have had in while.
