Four Roses Bourbon Tasting!


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.

I've been beyond excited about this for months now and am very glad that I was able to do this!  At first the cafe was frustrating because we arrived 15 minutes before our scheduled time, as was instructed on my reservation. We arrived at the location stated only to find out that the cafe had MOVED ! It took 30 minutes to find the new location. I was really afraid that we would miss our reservation. Luckily the cafe understood the lateness and we got to play with owls!  The price was very inexpensive, about $15 per person, depending on how much time you purchase. I purchased 1 hour. The price included 1 hour with the owls, one hot or cold beverage, and the workers take photos of you with the owls on your behalf (using your phone or camera).  I loved the Japanese beverage shelves. The top shelf has a thick white ...

Wilde Child Travel: Travel Safely

The travel season is upon us and, unfortunately, it is a more tense and stressful than normal . Getting on a plane to visit your family and friends have been more nerve racking than ever with all of the attacks that have been happening all over the world. Part of the goal of the unfortunate events being reported by the media is to create panic. There is no way for us travelers anticipate what could happen next, the only thing we can do is to prepare ourselves for the worst and continue with our lives. It is hard to prepare for emergency while traveling, I know. That is why I have rounded up some of the most useful safety travel apps that can be downloaded over various platforms (smart phone, tablets, and computers) so you can carry them with you and always be informed in case of an emergency! 1.
