You better have a tour lined up before showing up because this isn’t a huge place and it’s very popular. That said, go here because the grounds are impeccable. Even just stopping for a cocktail at their cocktail expansion, is worth it. I will definitely be going back to take the distillers tour because I was floored by this place. It’s also near so many horse farms. The scenery of this distillery can’t be put into words.

[Review based on walk-on visit not a tour] Not really much to do here unless you do the distillery tour, since most of the property is off limits. There is a seating area outback of the giftshop but all you can see is a big tree right in front of the patio and the distillery roof behind it. The bar is pricey, but the mule was good (albeit small) and you get a cool copper cup!

Beautiful grounds, knowledgeable staff, and at least 4 times a year a special bourbon only here and not sold elsewhere. Today they had a single barrel pick that is excellent, Chris's Pick 4. Bar area to sample.

Woodford Reserve Distillery in Versailles, KY is only a short drive East of Louisville; and ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT! The tour last slightly over an hour, and had us hanging on every word! The facility is a national historic landmark; the structures, equipment, & process are absolutely impressive. To round off the tour, you not only enjoy a Straight Bourbon tasting, but also a crash course to becoming a sommelier!

Is it worth a 4 hour drive?

It's a really nice facility, gorgeous surroundings and some damn fine bourbon. With that said, I'm not sure I'd drive four hours to see it unless I had some other things lined up nearby to make a day of it. Maybe taking a long weekend and visiting some other distilleries along the trail.

What about pets? Are they pet friendly?

Jon Nadler | Jul 23, 2021

Maybe outside of the gift shop and outside of the tasting room. There are places to sit outside of both. If your pup is outside I don't think they would protest. Otherwise they are a little uptight inside. Or screw, it test the waters, then if they say something. You say, what do you hate puppies!?
