Four Roses Distillery

Not because I work at Four Roses Distillery at Lawrenceburg, but I think this distillery tour is quite wheelchair accessible.  It is probably the beautiy of being a small distillery as you could set your pace much easier than other distillery tours.  Everybody is very laid back.  Our distillery is not a mega distillery and produces very small volume of high-quality Bourbon whiskey every day. 

The best thing is to call the distillery visitor center and tell visitor center staff about your mobility condition.  After the video presentation of the Bourbon making processes, a tour guide will lead visitors to a distillery walk through tour.  There is an elevator (rather small - only one wheelchair at a time) that will take a physically disabled visitor to the fermentor room.  Then the visitor will take an elevated walkway to the beer still and the doubler.  Once the visitr exits out of the distillery building, the next stop will be where the tour began.  There will be some product sampling to actually taste Four Roses Bourbon products while a tour guide will explain the characteristics of each product.

It is a great way of spending a few hours, and it takes only about 20 minutes from the Bluegrass Airport.  There won't be any charge for the tour.

If you hit the right time, you will be able see our tanker truck which runs twice daily between the distillery and our warehouse facility in Cox's Creek near Bardstown.
