We had a good time taking a tour through Makers Mark and learning the process of bourbon. They encouraged you to taste each vat as it fermented and Terry decided he liked the finished product better.
The highlight of my tour was getting to dip and personalize a bottle myself. If anyone is thinking of visiting this area there's an ambassador program through their website where you can have a barrel named for you and they keep you posted on the progress as it goes through the process during the 6 years and you are invited back when it's ready to purchase 2 bottles from it if you like. I wish I'd have known this before visiting but have signed up since.
