Distillery District Food and History Tour in Lexington

A journey in time and tastes in the Distillery District you won’t forget!

Town Branch Creek won't be the only thing flowing as you sip on limestone filtered bourbons, sample long-standing Kentucky cuisine, and learn the stories behind this revitalized piece of Lexington's history.

You'll sample cider, sophisticated cocktails, farm-to-table fare, German inspired bites, Kentucky staples like burgoo, award-winning ice cream, and the bourbon that built this 25 acre property, all while hearing well-researched history woven into a day filled with new friends and fun!

Your entertaining foodie guide will take you through the historic James E. Pepper Distillery property, which began making bourbon in 1879. Today, revitalized as a lively downtown Lexington destination, this spot is home to diverse food and drink offerings...and lots of fun!
