From distilleries to huge expansions, here s what s new on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail Dahlia Ghabour, Louisville Courier Journal
If you re planning to visit the Louisville area, it might be worth visiting a distillery or 18 while you re here.
In fact, distillery representatives would really love for you to visit. In 2019, the Kentucky Bourbon Trail and Kentucky Bourbon Trail Craft Tour welcomed nearly 2 million visitors. In 2020, that number plummeted to just under 600,000 as Americans were encouraged to stay home to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus.
Now, with spring rolling up and doses of various COVID-19 vaccines rolling out, distillery owners hope Kentucky Bourbon Trail tours will pick back up again.

Indiana looks to make a name for itself with Indiana Rye Whiskey by Margaret Menge, The Center Square | March 03, 2021 09:30 AM Print this article
Indiana isn’t known for whiskey, but it could be in the future.
A state representative from southern Indiana introduced a bill in January to brand “Indiana rye whiskey” and define it as a whiskey made in Indiana from a mash containing at least 51% rye, distilled to no more than 80% alcohol by volume (160 proof) and aged in new, charred white oak barrels for two years.
Rep. Chris May, R-Bedford, says he introduced the bill to establish standards for Indiana rye whiskey and boost the growing number of distillers and the growing popularity of rye whiskey.
