Augusta Distillery

Before distilleries began springing up in central Kentucky, bourbon whisky flowed right here in the original Bourbon County. Corn-based distillations from hilltop stills found their way down to the banks of Augusta in old oaken barrels, where they were loaded on flat bottom boats and distributed downstream to the west and south. This journey would not only transport the whisky, but also transform it into what we know today as bourbon.

The Augusta Ferry

As one of the oldest ferry services still in operation on the Ohio River, the Augusta Ferry runs 7 days a week from 8 AM to 8 PM (Closed Christmas Day).
