In 1919, they said bourbon was finished. Kentucky disagreed.

On July 30th, spend one evening tasting the proof — five pours that carried America's native spirit from Prohibition's shadows to the shelves collectors fight over today.

Guided sip-by-sip by bourbon steward Leah Taylor, inside the historic Beaumont Inn.

This isn't a tasting. It's a hundred years of history, carefully distilled.

🥃 $60 for 5 curated pours + the story behind each

Did you know you check in at what used to be the college library?

When the Beaumont Inn was a women's college, this room held the school's books.

The original cherry bookcases are still standing — and some of the school's own books are still on the shelves behind the front desk.

Seating is intentionally limited to 40 people max.

Did you know the Beaumont Inn sits in the oldest permanent settlement west of the Allegheny Mountains?

Harrodsburg was founded on June 16, 1774 — older than the United States itself, and in 2024 it marked its 250th anniversary. The Inn's own hillside has welcomed travelers for around two centuries, going back to the days of the Greenville Springs spa.

Some places have a little history.
Harrodsburg KY is overflowing with it.

You can't book a room like this anywhere else in Kentucky.

Beaumont Inn has stood since 1845 — first as a women's college, and since 1919 as a family-run inn through five generations. Sleep in the history, wake up to a complimentary breakfast (Wed–Sun), and dine where they won a James Beard Award.
