Searsman Posted January 20 Author Share Posted January 20 Most people have know of Ky for fast horses. Some declare Ky the Horse Capital of the World. If that is first in this state , then Ky Bourbon is a very close second.. and Somerset is part of that notoriety.. Did you know , 95% of the worlds Bourbon is distilled In Ky? Also, that approximately 85 % of hops and grain , corn for Bourbon are Grown in Ky as well. All BOURBON is Whiskey, But not all Whiskey is Bourbon!! Here are a few photos of Somerset’s connection to the “Bourbon Trail”.. Somerset is to be the southern most Distillery on the Bourbon trail, due to a 200 million $ distillery called Horse Enjoy your stay in Ky ..

Everyone knows about bourbon's Kentucky heritage. For me a trip to KY is like going to the Holy Land. Not to worry, nobody will be required to wash their feet. (I will, but it won't be required) Oh, and I made my reservations a long time ago. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
