Merle's Whiskey Kitchen

Where To Celebrate Old Fashioned Week in Louisville | Eater

"Part of the Urban Bourbon Trail, Merle’s Whiskey Kitchen has received multiple recognitions for being one of the best bourbon bars around. Outfitted with exposed brick and rows of whiskey barrels, this downtown spot serves award-winning fried chicken and a selection of sides like candied bourbon maple bacon and mac & cheese made with a five-cheese blend and a crispy herb crust. Wash it all down with the special for Elijah Craig Old Fashioned Week, a classic old fashioned made with the restaurant’s hand-selected Elijah Craig barrel-strength bourbon." - Vox Creative
