On the drive back up to NYC we went farther west through Kentucky to explore the Bourbon Trail and a few states we’ve never explored. I actually loved Kentucky and its smallish family farms and hilly landscape.<\/p>\n

The Bulleit Distillery was very pretty with its old brick and weathering steel Rackhouses.<\/p>\n

Some facts I found interesting:<\/p>\n

-The barrels are handmade with no glue, after bourbon they go on to be used for rum<\/p>\n

-The bourbon actually seeps deeply into the charred barrel gaining its flavor<\/p>\n

-Whiskey begins as a “Beer” first before being distilled<\/p>\n
