Lux Row Distillers
While planning our wedding over spring break, we made a stop at Lux Row Distillers. With so many incredible bourbons to explore, great company, and an unforgettable atmosphere, it quickly became one of our favorite memories from the trip! We hope it will be one of your favorites too.
Bardstown Bourbon Company
We toured this distillery on the day we got engaged with Head Distiller Nick Smith (Behind the Scenes Tour), and from that moment, it held a special place in our hearts. Every distillery has its own story and history, but this one felt truly unique. There was something about its character, charm, and atmosphere that stood out to us immediately — and we knew it was the perfect place to share with family and friends. This is on the Saturday Bourbon Trail tour as part of our schedule if you're interested in joining us.
