Talon's beautiful Shelbyville location is home to our sister brand, Sugar Lips Wine. Prior to its opening in 2009, the Shelbyville tasting house was just a regular house. The garage was converted into a unique, one-of-a-kind Barrel Vaulted ceiling tasting room where guests can enjoy Talon and Sugar Lips wines. The rest of the house was rehabilited to create a gift shop, private event room and a large porch that overlooks a limestone rock quarry on acres of beautiful land.

century and a half ago, Whiskey Row was the economic center of Louisville – home to distillers, wholesalers and Old Forester, America’s First Bottled Bourbon™. In 1870, George Garvin Brown signed and sealed Old Forester with a promise: a handwritten guarantee to produce Bourbon of the highest consistent quality. As you step into 119 West Main Street, the same four walls that Old Forester called home before Prohibition, you’ll see that the times have changed, but the promise of sealed-in quality from the First Bottled Bourbon endures.

THERE’S NO GOING BACK.
In 2012, founder and whiskey maker, Kaveh Zamanian, took a plunge down the Rabbit Hole. In love with Bourbon and Rye whiskey, he risked it all and left his twenty-year psychology practice to make authentic spirits. He developed unique whiskey recipes that are made 100% in Kentucky. His goal was to create innovative spirits and inspire more people to discover and enjoy Bourbon and American whiskey. He then took an unconventional path of building a magnificent distillery in the heart of Louisville. Rabbit Hole Distillery is a modern cathedral that pays homage to the art and science of distillation. A fully immersive guest experience, every step of the process, from grain to bottle, is in proud display.
