Evan Williams Bourbon Experience

Last weekend my Ukrainian friends and I were in town for a birthday weekend trip. We had a wonderful time at our first bourbon tour in Louisville. Mae was the highlight of our tour (along with the Bourbon lol) , she was so passionate, kind, informative and overall truly a gem! Thank you for the tour Mae and see you next time!!

For the price I thought it was awesome. Other places charge you near double and you only get 3 tastings. Here you get 4. I didn’t mind some of the automated and video part of the tour. Our tour guide was Bill, and he was funny and knowledgeable, but you can tell he has said what he is saying to us a million times. Poor guy. Either way, I learned a lot, and I don’t need more than 45 minutes tour. I really loved we got to drink the 12 yr red bottle. It was great.

We did the speakeasy option and we loved it! Definitely felt as though we were in Prohibition times. Surely a great way to do a tasting and definitely unique compared to other distilleries! Would recommend for sure. If you don't care for the history, you might not enjoy it as much.

Great engaging tour. Only a mini distillery to see but the products are exclusive and unique. Definitely recommend checking it out if you have the time.

This place has a cool vibe, but I felt that the experience was a bit too automated compared to other distilleries. Our tour guide was fantastic, but it was clear that the setup was more computerized than personal. For those visiting for the first time or without a tour, I can imagine it would be a great experience. However, after visiting some larger distilleries earlier in the day, we found ourselves overwhelmed by the size and scale of those places. We did enjoy our visit to Heaven Hill, the parent company, and had a great time there as well. Overall, we enjoyed our time at this distillery, but it lacked some of the personal touch we experienced elsewhere.

The tour was very interesting and the bourbon was great! A good amount of history and explanation of the distillery process

Beautiful building with 3 floors. Wonderful staff throughout each floor. Gift shop had a nice selection but small. Prices were good. Service at the 3 floor bar was phenomenal! They educated us a little while enjoying our delicious drinks. My husband had the flight and I ordered the Whiskey Sour made with their Square 6 Whetted. Can’t believe how delicious it was. Then I had the Cherry Kiss which was also amazing but the Whiskey Sour is a must try. I’m going to try to make it when I get home. Bar floor had ample seating but we were there later so peak hours were over. Cleanliness was great. Overall it was super fun and highly recommend as well.

From walking in til our purchase after the tour ❣️Mae was guide & made it the most informative & passionate experience. She was very engaging & funny. If you want a super fun tour with side info & jokes ask for Mae 🎉 Thanks Mae 🫶🏾
