Maker’s Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky

Maker’s Mark Distillery in Loretto, Kentucky is one of the most recognizable stops on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. For bourbon fans, it is a well-known destination. For photographers, road trippers, and travelers who enjoy beautifully designed places, it offers much more than a tasting stop.

Even without being a bourbon drinker myself, I found this stop surprisingly enjoyable. The grounds, architecture, historic buildings, and distinctive branding made it one of the most visually interesting places we visited along the way.
