History,
In 1887, Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. built a new kind of distillery destination in Millville, Kentucky. Inspired by European architecture, the site featured a Castle, a classical Springhouse, and a Sunken Garden. What he built became the birthplace of bourbon hospitality and tourism.
Prohibition forced the closing of the distillery in 1920. Over the next century, the property changed owners and occupants several times, eventually falling into ruin.
Tasting Notes,
Nose: Stone fruit, almond, pumpernickel, honey, toffee, leather, and toasted oak
Palate: Light brown sugar, soft cinnamon, marshmallow, rosemary, and black tea
Finish: Tobacco, toast, and dark chocolate
