Review of Buffalo Trace Distillery

There are pros and cons to the Buffalo Trace visit...

There are pros and cons to the Buffalo Trace visitor experience:

Pros:

- Beautiful property
- The basic tour is free
- You really get up close to the bottling, it's cool to see!
- The tasting at the end is included with the free tour, which is generous

Cons:

- They only carry a (very) limited selection of their own brands for sale, even though all other distilleries seem to be able to provide theirs
- They do not have a bar where you can order a drink and taste more on your own, even though all other distilleries seem to be able to have one
- The staff gets a little defensive when you ask them about these things

Overall a good visit, but can't be marked as 5 stars for these reasons
