Taste. Blend. Bottle.

Join us once a month in our West Campus Tasting Room and spend a couple of hours experiencing the fine balance between art and science as you blend your very own bottle of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. You’ll create your personal blend based on the practices our distilling team uses in our sensory lab. Consider the intricacies and differences between individual barrels, and create your own test blends, tasting and analyzing how the puzzle pieces of flavor, texture, and aroma fit together.

Our team will guide your hands-on experience as you taste and blend three individual barrels into your perfectly balanced blend of Bourbon, ultimately bottling your very own creation to take home! The Blend experience costs $90 per person.
