Distillery Tour
One trip to our historic distillery and you’ll begin to understand why our Bourbon has come to be so mellow. Nestled in the quiet Kentucky countryside near Lawrenceburg, and on the banks of the scenic Salt River, the Four Roses Distillery makes the trip to this very mellow place all that more rewarding. The Distillery was built in 1910 and features a unique Spanish Mission-Style architecture rarely seen in Kentucky. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and operates continuously, except for the summer months, typically July through mid-September.
Distillery tours are available Monday through Saturday, on the hour beginning at 9:00 am with the last tour given at 3:00 pm. The Four Roses Gift Shop is open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 am until 4:00 pm.
Due to the extended Summer Shutdown period this year, beginning the first week of April through September 9th, we’re modifying our regular tour experience to include special behind the scenes components. We will enhance the tour through the distillery by allowing our visitors to view normal operating equipment that cannot be seen during production. Photos and descriptions of the Bourbon-making process have also been added. A short video, a presentation by one of our distillery experts, and a sampling of our Bourbons will also be offered during this shutdown period.
For more information please feel free to contact our Visitor Center Staff at (502) 839-3436 (x18).
We will be open for tours on Tuesday, November 4, Federal Election Day, but due to state regulations, we are unable to sell Bourbon products in our gift shop or have the tasting after each tour.
We will be closed November 26, and during the Christmas and New Years Holidays which are as follows: Dec. 24, 25, 31 and Jan. 1.
Be sure and plan to tour our one-of-a-kind single story rack warehouse facilities located in Cox’s Creek, Kentucky, approximately one hour from the Distillery by car. Call 502-543-2264 for more information. Warehouse tours are free of charge and by appointment only.
We recommend calling ahead to schedule group tours larger than 10 guests.
