James B. Beam Distilling Co.

One of my top distilleries I visited. The whole process is organized, friendly staff, and beautiful area! Bought tickets ahead of time online. The tour was very cool, very informative, our tour guy was great! They give you a walk through the process and have some hands on learning while also stopping along the way to taste some bourbon! Gift shop and bar are beautiful. Restaurant out back is amazing. So many things to love about the experience. Towards the bottling part where they show you how they put the wax on the tops, they let you buy a bottle for retail price, then let you put your finger print on the wax, so if you are planning to buy a bottle, this was a cool unique option. I was on the first tour on a Friday morning and there was only 3 people so it was pretty much a private tour. Came during early February and it seemed like the perfect time to avoid big crowds.

What an amazing place! We visited today and stopped by both the gift shop and the restaurant and were so happy with both! The restaurant was lovely and the staff were friendly. The gift shop was large and well stocked with allocated bottles available for purchase. The history of the distillery was amazing. We will definitely be back for a tour

This had to be my most favorite tour out of the 12 different distillery tours we did! Bottle our own 9 year single barrel. Got some autographs on it as well. They let me dump a fresh barrel and try it. Just outstanding all around! Would most recommend!!!

For a large distillery this was perhaps the least impressive tour I have been on. We did not see the still. I was told we could personalize a bottle of Knob Creek but all we did was clean the bottle and at the end make an imprint in the wax. Other tours where I have personalized a bottle I have filled it, placed the label and sealed it. I will say the gift shop was well stocked with some harder to find bottles.

Our tour guide, Nikki, was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We were taken through every step of the distilling process and then were offered the opportunity to bottle our own bottle of Knobb Creek. Tour is interactive and very educational. Every staff member was very polite. Facility was spotless. Highly recommend this opportunity.

We went on a tour and decided to purchase a custom bottle of knob creek single barrel reserve. It was definitely an experience being able to clean the bottle ourselves and to watch it go through the line. The tour guide was great. His tour was engaging and he was overall very friendly and funny. We visit KY every year I plan to go back to possibly try out the restaurant on the property. The gift shop had a wide selection of items. There was also additional history of the jim beam brand and lineage in the lobby area while you wait for the tour.

While the food was ok, the atmosphere and service was great. For the price we paid, the burger was just a burger, I did ask for no tomato but got tomato anyway and the fries were good, but nothing to special. While my wife had the sliders, she said the sliders were juicy it had no sauce. The appetizer was probably the best thing we got, fried spiced bread with some cheese spread. Over all, it was ok, nothing to special to say the least

We totally loved our personalized tour with our amazingly knowledgeable guide Darren! He was so informed and made the tour a fun filled morning. A must do stop on your Bourbon Tour!
