Heaven Hill distillery placement

[5cents]

Hey guys, was looking at some old videos from 96 of the fire on youtube. For the life of me I can't place where the distillery was in relation to the visitors center. Can anyone help me out with this?

Was just there and looked at a pic in the BHC. It looked to be across the street and down a bit, towards Willett. In other words, instead of heading straight and BHC on right, you take the Y to the left and it would have been on the left. But, I was never there when it was there, this is all based on what o saw in the pic.

So basically at the bottom of the hill and across the street? It was hard to tell on the video as it was from a helicopter and it was hard to see the Y in the road. For some reason, I have been to the heritage center 3 times now but never take the time to take the tour which I am sure they would have told me where it was.

This might help - I circled the Visitors Centre and the site of the old distillery.

Great visual, Cam! I had known in general terms where it was located; but this is the perfect way to understand instantly the spatial relationship of all of the near environment at the HH site.

Way to go Bourbonian of the Year! :pope: No mystery, how you earned the title.

Ok, ok...no need to curse. The "spatial relationship" goes just a little too far..:cool:

I think my answer had more to do with my career in IT than BOTY - using Google maps seemed logical .... but I'm happy to take the kudos regardless :slappin:..... and I'm glad the map helped

Cam's picture hits its right on the nose. But if you want a visual when you're pulling out of the VS and look to your right and see two smoke stacks that is where the distillery was at.

I've got some pictures I took in 2008 of the distillery remains as they were then. A bit different to what it looked like when I was there earlier in the year for the Sampler. I forgot to get photos this time round, but I can dig out the '08 ones if anyone is interested?

Great info guys. Cam it would be awesome to see the pics and thanks for the spatial erotica.

Here is the link to the youtube vid. There is actually about 4 segments I think.

Probably the best of them....
