It's time that I update my 2019 review of Taste of Kentucky. This remains my go-to shop for…read moreKentucky-themed and other gifts. I recently had a "nickel tour" from the shop owner, Karen, who explained that she bought the shop from its original owners in 2023. Speaking with Karen it is clearly apparent how much she loves the shop and how invested she is in its success and growth. She shared that the shop began in 1983 when they had a cart in the Mall of St Matthews during Christmas season and has grown to the amazing shop that it is today. Karen took me into the back of the retail area where I was blown away at the size of the space. Since taking over the shop, Karen has expanded the number of staff members to accommodate the added business-to business market and online ordering. The inventory has grown (hundreds of Kentucky-based resources) to include seasonal items while maintaining the core Kentucky items. The retail space is larger, brighter, more modern, and includes much more merchandise. Local delivery is available and the shop ships nationwide. There is merchandise for all budgets and needs. They also create beautiful KY-themed gift baskets and can assist with corporate gift-giving well. As in my previous review, there is UK and U of L merchandise, KY derby-themed merchandise, beautiful stoneware, t-shirts, candles, and of course all of the delicious Kentucky treats (e.g, bourbon balls, bourbon barrel cake). I am happy to live very close by and proud to recommend A Taste of Kentucky to everyone. The store is located on Shelbyville Rd in Middletown in the Village Shopping Complex. There is plenty of dedicated parking.

He quickly pulled up a Google view of my property. After a brief discussion of the areas, he provided a price and said he and his crew would see me later that day. Very late that day, he texted that they would arrive after stopping for a quick dinner. Although it was dark, he and his team began shoveling. They did a great job of clearing my walkway and driveway. The fee was as he had quoted me during our call. I felt lucky to have found Nick. Based on the services I received, I felt the price was fair, and the work was good. And while I hope we don't have any more snow to shovel this year, I will keep him in mind for my spring hardscaping, landscaping, and fencing needs. (502-303-6469.
