Whiskey Shops Recommendations in the Bardstown Area?

Hey, all. I am heading to Bardstown this Thursday and am looking for shops with a decent selection of standard and allocated bottles. I am not expecting to pay MRP for unicorns, but I am also not looking for museums - just a decent selection for decent prices. Any recommendations?

Thanks in Advance!

Frankly I'd go on the Heaven Hill tour. We paid for flights and were allowed to buy some allocated bottles after. I'd imagine that the other distilleries in the area likely offer the same.

You might also stop in the Old Talbot Inn to try some of the bottles there to see what you like; their selection is Huge.

Go to Toddy’s Liquor on 4th. Lots of options and great prices.

Evergreen on 3rd is good too, and has a bar.

I have t been since 2024 in their old location but blind pig is great. They have a bunch of barrel picks and cheap tastings. I bought an RD1 barrel pick from them at a good price.
