M P FEST O R

The bluegrass music capital of the world is Owensboro, Kentucky. With one of the most impressive downtown riverfronts in the United States, Owensboro is a bourbon lovers paradise. Park at a downtown hotel and walk to countless bars, breweries, restaurants and boutiques. Around every corner you’ll find live music and award winning bourbon from Green River Distilling Company.

Green River Distilling Company

The Green River Distillery, now restored to its former glory, is flowing with Green River Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a glowing, amber example of Kentucky craftsmanship. It’s a rounder, smoother, higher rye bourbon whiskey blend made with corn grown in the same Kentucky countryside and the same limestone-filtered water that J.W. McCulloch used in his secret recipe, aged at least five years under the same warm Kentucky sun. 10 Distillery Rd | Owensboro, KY 42301 | (270) 691-9001 Greenriverdistilling.com
