    The Old Forester Distillery tour is located at their smaller distillery on whiskey row in downtown…read moreLouisville. They also have a shop there along with a bar for paid tastings of their bourbons. The staff are friendly and personable and the site is welcoming. We were early for our tour but there was seating along with the shopping and bar. Our tour guide was Carter and he was very knowledgeable. He took us through the history of the distillery and owners as we walked through their smaller distillery. A stand out aspect of their distillery is the on site cooperage. The cooper that was working was very energetic and treated us to a viewing of an actual barrel charring. I've never seen that in person and it was a real treat. The tour ends with a tasting that included a pin and a chocolate covered caramel marshmallow, which I ended up buying a full bag of later in the shop - they are so good! This is, by far, my favorite bourbon trail tour yet - partly because of Carter, the cooperage, and the little extras we were given. I highly recommend!

    Enjoyed the opportunity to tour a famous old distillery.

Got a good history of the founder and the distillery. Enjoyed smelling and seeing the fermenting brew at various stages. Cool to see the coopering (barrel making) including the blazing fire charring the inside of the freshly made barrels. Wife said she could have watched the bottling line all day, and I wouldn't disagree. Small tastings of their 4 major labels in a sit down tasting room. The wife, who is not a whiskey fan, still enjoyed the tour, and was presented a decent mocktail to sip during the tasting. If you're in the neighborhood, it's a fun way to pass an hour plus.

(Was hopping for the 10 yr Bourbon but got the 10 yr Rye.) Had always heard good thing about the rye too but a little more than i usually pay for any bottle, but hey . . . . I was there . . . . so i did. The staff were great but if i had one complaint, it's that it was bundled with another bottle. Sure, i understand when a retail place does it but it seemed unnecessary here, even annoying.

I opted for the tropic & Derby after dark. The tropical one was fun with the addition of the coconut cream and the added bananas. The Derby after dark was also a front runner with the hint of chocolate added with the mint, paired very nicely! Isaiah was amazing throughout our entire reservation, staying on top of refilling our snacks that paired perfectly with the drinks and flights! They are strict on their 1.5 hour stay per table so be mindful when ordering your drinks . That said, I did overhear the servers reminding the tables of their time remaining and allowed them to ample time for last call.
