Buffalo Trace Distillery

Buffalo Trace Distillery is a National Historic Landmark and one of America’s oldest continuously operating distilleries, located in Frankfort about 30 minutes from downtown Lexington. The distillery grounds offer several event spaces including the atmospheric barrel warehouses, where the scent of aging bourbon and towering ricks of barrels create an experience unlike any conventional venue.

Private events at Buffalo Trace can include guided distillery tours, bourbon tastings, and exclusive barrel selections as part of the celebration. The grounds are meticulously maintained with gardens, historic stone buildings, and riverside views along the Kentucky River. Catering is arranged through approved vendors, and the distillery’s event team manages logistics on the historic campus. For bourbon enthusiasts and anyone seeking a truly Kentucky celebration, Buffalo Trace offers an authenticity that cannot be replicated.
