Wenzel Whiskey, a Covington distiller, has been added to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail.
Kentucky Distiller’s Association welcomed 15 new locations to trail this week.
The Kentucky Bourbon Trail, launched in 1999, now features 60 destinations in 27 of Kentucky’s 120 counties.
Wenzel Whiskey, join Newport’s New Riff Distilling and Pensive Distilling and Ludlow’s Second Sights Spirits on the trail.
“Kentucky is the one, true and authentic home for Bourbon,” Kentucky Disitllery Association President Eric Gregory said in a press release. “While we keep breaking attendance records, there are plenty of people around the world who have never made the pilgrimage to the Birthplace of Bourbon — and many more who are planning to return.”
Bourbon is a $9 billion economic and tourism powerhouse for Kentucky, generating more than 23,100 jobs with $2.2 billion in salaries and benefits, according to the release.
