History of Bourbon

In this class, we’ll trace the evolution of American whiskey from the early days in colonial New England through the “extra-aged” bourbons of the 1960s to 1980s. We’ll sample 5 bourbons (plus 1 near-bourbon) to trace the flavor evolution of bourbon along that timeline, and we’ll discuss how important bourbon was (and still is) to shaping both the culture and the government of the United States.

This class is the second in our year-long “Bourbon University” with a new theme offered each month. No need to attend them all - mix and match as you like!

$35 per person, class includes guided bourbon flight and light food. Dinner reservations at Castle Farm Restaurant available for after the class.

 This class is part of the year long Bourbon University series at the Kentucky Castle in Versailles, KY.  More info here
