What You’ll Experience

Designed for whiskey enthusiasts and curious palates, this small-group experience is led by a Certified Bourbon Steward. You'll tour our distillery floor to see firsthand how traditional copper pot stills shape raw spirit, taste raw "white dog", and dive into a curated tasting flight exploring mash bills, barrel maturation, and bourbon history. This experience includes an in-depth distillery walkthrough focused on copper pot stills, mash preparation, and small-batch distillation cuts. Sample raw, unaged “White Dog” distillate straight from the pot still to discover how oak aging transforms a clear spirit into rich bourbon. Enjoy a curated three-bourbon flight featuring Old Alker 7 Year Single Barrel Straight Bourbon, Old Alker Small Batch Reserve Bourbon, and Old Alker 7 Year Cask Strength Straight Bourbon, with a guided sensory breakdown of each expression’s nose, palate, and finish.
