Most people hear “Bourbon Trail” and picture one straight path. The truth is that bourbon in Kentucky is shaped by Five Bourbon Regions™ and each one has its own story, its own flavors, and its own rhythm. The region you choose matters. It affects where you stay, how much you enjoy the day, and how easy your trip feels. I have spent years learning these regions and how they work together. When you plan with me, you are not guessing or hoping you picked the right city. You are traveling with someone who knows the land, the routes, and the experience you want to create.
Louisville Urban Bourbon brings city energy, vibrant nightlife, and an authentic speakeasy vibe, all set against the largest concentration of Old Victorian homes in the country.
Bardstown is the Bourbon Capital of the World, offering a blend of quaint charm and quiet evenings wrapped in Southern elegance. It’s home to premier distilleries, boutique hotels, refined dining, and the kind of hospitality that makes every guest feel like family.
Frankfort delivers historic roots, deep tradition, and true Kentucky craftsmanship. It’s where early delegates met and shaped the politics of Kentucky bourbon, giving this region its unmistakable legacy. Think barrel barns, live music, and good old-fashioned barn parties. Sip straight from the barrel and soak in the countryside charm. Bring your hats and boots; this is the authentic heart of Bourbon Country.
Lexington is Bluegrass and Thoroughbred Country, shaped by rolling hills, white fences and world-famous horse farms. This region sits atop one of the largest limestone aquifers in the country, which gives the water a natural purity that helps define Kentucky bourbon. It is refined and elegant, a place where bourbon and equestrian culture come together. The result is smoother sips, breathtaking scenery and a naturally luxurious pace.
The Western Frontier is where bourbon’s backwoods history began. This region includes Owensboro, Paducah and Bowling Green, and is known for its ties to the early stills hidden deep in the countryside. It offers caves, lakes, national parks and wide open spaces that create a relaxed and adventurous side of Kentucky. It is the perfect region for guests who want bourbon paired with outdoor exploration, local character and weekends spent on the water.

Her path to bourbon country began in corporate America, where she spent more than a decade entertaining clients in Kentucky long before bourbon tours were cool. The experiences were enjoyable, but she could sense what was missing. She imagined something more meaningful, more personal, more rooted in the true spirit of Kentucky.
What kept her here was more than business, she fell in love with the Victorian architecture, the warmth of the people, the food, the music, the Southern hospitality, and of course, the horses and bourbon....and she noticed something important, guests wanted the same things she did. They weren’t looking for a brochure, they were searching for real stories, exclusive places, and moments that feel like they were made just for them.
In 2018, she stepped away from corporate America trusting her instinct for something more meaningful. Then 2020 arrived and forced her hand. Covid has a way of stripping life down to the essentials and showing you what you're really made of. In 2021, Sipping in the South was born. Created from a woman’s perspective and grounded in care and authenticity, Sipping in the South has grown into a way of experiencing bourbon country that goes far beyond transportation or tastings.
We craft experiences with you as the star. We honor tradition without repeating what everyone else is doing, and we welcome guests the same way Kentucky welcomed me; with warmth, generosity, and a little sparkle of Southern magic.
Here, every tour becomes a story worth passing along and so a Legend is made.
