Michter's Fort Nelson Distillery

Me and couple friend spent our birthdays which was November 8th and the 9th visiting Distillery’s and doing tours. Michters by far was our favorite, Jacob did an amazing job describing there process and the details that Michters follow to deliver an amazing product to us. My Boss reached out to Jacqueline and she went above and beyond to schedule time for us to pour our own bottles which is something as a bourbon/ whiskey lover will always cherish. I can’t say enough about Michters Fort Nelson between Jacqueline and Jacob they definitely made our birthday bourbon tour the best we could have ever imagined. If you’re planning a trip on the bourbon trail we truly recommend Michters above all on bourbon row.
Thank you Jacqueline and Jacob for a lifetime of memories

The Discovery Tour was a blast. I found it educational, and entertaining. The tour guide (I believe Bailey was her name) was very knowledgeable and courteous. The tastings were good also. I would definitely recommend Bailey if you can have her lead your tour.

We had a great time. Tour was very informative and the tasting was excellent. We were able to reservations at the bar and the drinks where great and the staff was wonderful. Will definitely go back the next time we are in Louisville.

Our tour guide Rebecca was great! She had a great personality and was very informative.

Good knowledgeable tour guide Jacob.

Absolutely a joke and will never return. A very poor customer experience, with a bar manager who clearly has a woke attitude, and feels his view of life should be applied to people as well. Do yourself a favor and skip this one, as there are many more distilleries locally that will provide a much better customer experience, and treat customers with mutual respect.

We did the founders tour and it was amazing! Patrick and Atticus were so knowledgeable and made the tour so much fun. Of course, the bourbons are a can't miss. Left with bottles to bring back to Alaska. So glad we made time for this!

Had a fantastic tour and Michters staff really went above and beyond for us. One of my favorite whisky brands and the awesome people just confirmed Im spending my money in the right place! Keep up the great work!

Don’t miss this downtown tour. Rebecca was a fantastic guide and the tasting experience was both enlightening and delicious. Upstairs bar and cocktails were also top notch.

Enjoyed experience and staff was exceptional.

We recently visited Louisville for the first time and went to Evan Williams, Peerless, Old Forrester, and Michter’s. Our experience at Michter’s was by far the best! We did the tour and a bottle pour.

We’ve been on multiple other distillery tours around the country and loved the uniqueness of Michter’s. They process the “old school” way at the Fort Nelson facility which allows you to see the traditional way of distilling; their distillate enters the barrels at 103 proof rather than the industry standard at 125. This allows for less water being added at the end of the process, which, in turn, allows for more flavor.

The staff were second-to-none. The bar upstairs was outstanding. They clearly pay attention to details and the customer experience. The staff, the cocktails, the presentation were above and beyond in every way! We enjoyed it so much that we went back every day we were in Louisville. Every person we met, from Bailee at the front desk to Justice to Nicole to the bartenders, Haley, Christy, and Georgia, they were personable, fun, and have perfected their craft. We LOVED the attention to detail! We will definitely be back and can’t give enough accolades about Michter’s in Louisville. Thank you to everyone we encountered! Highly recommend this distillery. Worth every minute you spend there! Cheers!

Patrick was a great guide and the tour was well worth the small fee. Doesn't hurt that the bourbon was excellent!

Smaller distillery tour but still worth the time if your on whiskey row. Best shirts in the gift shop and distillery only bottle drops. Our guide Paige was great!

Great pours in the bar upstairs.

Great tour, Bailey was awesome!
