This little detour was a fun discovery. We actually have visited this place twice, years apart. Our…read morefirst visit was somewhat planned. Hubs actually was exploring our route and discovered this place so we bookmarked it in case we had time. Both times we visited, we were kind of strapped for time so we have yet to go on the tour. They do allow for tastings of their many boozes but they limit it to 6 or 8, which is very smart. I think we did not have that many our recent trip. Since we purchased 6 bottles our first trip (they give a discount for 6+ bottles), we were already familiar and wanted to try some of their new items. Both times we visited, we brought in our dog and she received a lot of attention. They have dog toys so of course I had to buy her one each time. Now those are really expensive! The prices vary for their bottles, maybe averaging about $55. Some are cheaper and many are more expensive than that. They also sell merchandise in the same room you do the tastings. We never have time but they do free tours and I wanna say they last about 45 minutes. It is in the middle of nowhere so it's not like you can make a day out of it any stay in town, while filling up an entire itinerary for a day. We really enjoy their bourbon and keep stock of the Blueberry and Mint Julep flavored bourbons. Everyone is always hospitable when we visit and that motivated us more to support them!

There are very few distilleries in this area of Kentucky - this may be the only one. So it might be…read moreworth a stop. Parking lot was deserted when I arrived and I had the undivided attention of the bartender who gave me a lot of info about the place. It's a relatively new distillery. It has to be because this backward county didn't legalize alcohol sale and manufacture until 2016! Believe it or not. And it's a fairly large scale operation judging by the size of the tanks. I tried a flight of 4 or 5 whiskies, bourbons, and a moonshine. The pours were adequate, neither too small nor too big. Honestly, none of them were great but they were all acceptable except the moonshine. Moonshine in my opinion is just unfinished whiskey, suitable only as a gift to bring home to Northerners for their amusement. And ridiculous concoctions like peanut butter whisky - artificially flavored. It tastes as weird as it sounds - avoid! My rating is based more on the overall experience than the actual whiskies. I enjoyed talking with the bartender, then taking my flight off to a table and relaxing for a while in the quiet and out of the heat. I bought a couple of airplane-size bottles and a cool tee shirt. And there was a cat.

They had heard good things about SKD but hadn't visited or sampled their products. But today was the day. Let me touch on the tour - wow. The tour was expected to be about an hour but we stayed at least two, maybe a bit more. Our guide - Luther, is a hell of a nice fella. Taught us a lot. He told us how he's been friends with several of the other since school days and you can tell he really loves this place. This post would be too long to go over every great thing about the tour and sampling - so go and see for yourself. The products: Folks I'm not a big drinker. But I will say this. I came out buying, a bottle of their Vodka, two bottles of bourbon, and two bottles of flavored shine. I will also say I love each and every shine flavor and it was hard to choose just two. The location: new, very clean, and great looking. Inside and out. Lastly the staff: Again Luther was a great fella. The counter girls were crazy friendly and nice and then the owner Junior was just so nice and personable. Folks come here, bring your friends, and have a great time. We absolutely will be back when we return to the area. Hoping to catch a night when they have something going on like music outside.

The sandwich had very small pieces of brisket with a heavy amount of fat, and the pickled onions tasted like they had been sitting in the fridge a little too long.

Overall, while I liked the atmosphere and convenience, the food just wasn't worth coming back for.
