Green River Distilling Co. Tour
There’s never been a better time to check out Green River Distilling Co. After releasing their Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (and receiving amazing reviews for it) just a few months ago, people are lining up to check out this historic facility to see how some of the best bourbon in Kentucky is made. You can learn the ins and outs of the bourbon production industry along with Green River’s rich, fascinating history on a one-hour tour. After that, you’ll get to taste three different bourbons produced at the distillery. For only $20, you can book a tour Tuesday-Saturday at 10 a.m., noon or 2 p.m.
