Tourism Groups Unite To Promote Kentucky Bourbon Experience.

I've been very impressed by the work Eric Gregory has done in his short time as President of the Kentucky Distillers' Association. The latest, announced today, is Team Bourbon, a coalition of 11 tourism groups. The details are here.

Naturally, they have a web site: kybourbonspirit.com. It is mostly still a work-in-progress, but there is a nifty driving distance chart with all bourbon-country-specific destinations, and the short video on the home page perfectly expresses what they mean by "the bourbon lifestyle."

Nice. Dug the short video. Not real informative but the vibe was great. Sure made me want to get back to bourbon country!

Thanks, and Cheers!

By any chance has WT initiated any changes in their visitor center, such as expansion and more summer down time tour access?

The WT website still states that tours are limited July - September due to "essential maintenance".....you can't get into any of the buildings nor can you see the barrels other than through a dark, dusty window. How ridiculous...every other distillery manages to provide tours. Well, many distilleries if not all...4 Roses was more of a class room presentation.
