As part of my birthday celebration I wanted to see a part of the famous Bourbon Trail in Kentucky. There are plenty of distilleries and well-known labels participating in the Bourbon Trail, and I picked Four Roses. Doing my research, I looked at numerous websites and settled on Four Roses based on the Spanish style of the buildings. The aesthetic makes the campus really beautiful!
Four Roses offers tours and tastings from 9 am to 3 pm for $5. I arrived in time for the 2 pm tour. Unfortunately, it was already sold out. However, there was still room in the tasting. I would suggest calling ahead of time to make sure there's still room for you, if you want to take the tour.

Here is my first stamp in my Bourbon Trail Passport! When you get all of the stamps, you can send in your passport and get a t-shirt.
The tasting teaches the history of Four Roses and allows you sample the Single Barrel, the Small Batch, and the Yellow. I loved how they casually described the warm sensation bourbon gives you as a "Kentucky Hug".
You also get a complimentary tasting glass!
As well as touring and tasting at the distillery, the $5 ticket allows you to visit the Warehouse & Bottling Facility at another location.
