Not Everyone in the Group Drinks Bourbon. That's Fine.

Some of the best days we’ve built have been for groups where half the people were bourbon enthusiasts and the other half just wanted a memorable day in Kentucky. Sipping in the South tours are designed for exactly that, and for every other occasion in between.

How Planning Works

The tour is pre-packaged for ease, then refined around your group. After booking, guests share their one must-do distillery, and two additional visits are selected to build a comfortable, well-paced day. A dedicated Experience Coordinator handles the details so guests can simply enjoy.
