Limestone Branch Distillery

There’s a member of the Beam family behind almost every distillery in Kentucky. Seventh-generation distiller Steve Beam continued the tradition by opening Limestone Branch in 2012 not far from the long-gone distilleries of his ancestors. Local grain and limestone water round out legacy recipes for new whiskeys with old roots.

The Distillery Tour

Hundreds of artifacts are on display to start your tour through bourbon history. You’ll be guided around the production floor and process of fermentation, distillation and aging. Each product is handcrafted on a small scale.
