The Evan Williams Bourbon Experience offers an excellent and informative tour, led by knowledgeable guides who provide insights into Bourbon and Louisville history. The experience is interactive and educational, showcasing solid Bourbon products, including the 12-year variety. Visitors can enjoy a multimedia tour that includes a short reenactment video and takes them through various rooms displaying parts of the bourbon-making process. A hallway designed to resemble old-time shops adds a cool atmosphere, making it feel like a trip back in time. Guests can see some excavated bottles used for smuggling alcohol during prohibition.
Visitors can enjoy the tasting section at the end, where the spirits are excellent and often paired with unique items, making this tasting experience a highlight of the tour. The guides, described as fun and engaging, enhance the overall experience. The gift shop, though small, offers a great assortment of merchandise, including whiskeys and bourbons not available in stores, all at reasonable prices. Parking is available nearby, but it is not free. The Evan Williams Bourbon Experience is highly recommended for Bourbon enthusiasts and history buffs alike, especially since they support military service with complimentary tours for valid ID holders. The Speakeasy Tasting Experience is also highly praised, with guests noting the quality of drinks and the engaging atmosphere created by the staff.
