The oldest bourbon distillery building in Kentucky began operations in 1780 at Versailles. The historic structure is now the home of Woodford Reserve. The distiller is owned by the Brown-Foreman Corporation. The tour of their whiskey-production process begins at this visitors’ center. They pride themselves on small batch, premium bourbon using minimal automation. The result of this old-age hand crafting is a very smooth, 90 plus proof sipping whiskey. One taste and you will understand why Woodford Reserve has won so many awards.
