The Wild West Leaves its Mark on Bardstown
Manage episode 446115385 series 3604145
In this episode, we journey to a town that most people do not even know exists, where rolling hills hide a secret that changed American history. Beneath the quiet facade lies the story of a young woman whose sons would wreak havoc on not only their town, but the future bourbon capital of the world. Their wild antics and lawless deeds left a lasting mark, but their connection to Kentucky's bourbon history runs deeper than most realize. We'll explore a historic tavern they frequented, where bullet holes still bear witness to their presence, and trace the rise of a bourbon empire, a legend and brand the whole world is familiar with, born from the ashes of a family's struggles. Tune in to find out how the Wild West came to Bardstown and left it Mark!
Thank you for listening to Bourbon: Legends from the Trail, where history meets flavor and every bottle has a story to tell. Cheers to the stores and legends behind the Spirit!
