Kentucky Horse Farm

Beautiful horse farms have been part of the Bluegrass since the region was first settled, and so have horse farm visitors. Early 18th-century travelers remarked on the beautiful country estates of the Bluegrass noting, as one put it, “a handsome horse is the highest price of a Kentuckian.” Visiting a horse farm while in Kentucky is a uniquely Bluegrass kind of experience you’ll long remember. There are about 450 horse farms in the region. See the world’s most fabulous farms and barns, get up close and person with Kentucky Derby winners, revisit racing history, and discover an exciting variety or horse breeds.

Woodford Reserve Tour & Tasting

One of Kentucky’s oldest and smallest distilleries, the Woodford Reserve Distillery is built on history, sitting on Kentucky’s oldest distilling site where Elijah Pepper began crafting whiskey in 1812. Enjoy a guided tour through the distillery that explains the history of bourbon, how Woodford Reserve is unique at all five sources of flavor, the bottling process, and much more. Taste the award-winning craft bourbon and take in the scenery in the heart of bourbon country.

Castle & Key Distillery

Castle & Key isn’t just a great drink, and it isn’t just an immersive bourbon destination. It’s a new way of thinking founded on courage. It takes courage to make difficult decisions, make things the hard way because it’s the right way, and make change. Live courageously, and follow your crazy convictions.
