"Some of the best memories are made around a table, sharing a sip of Buffalo Trace Bourbon with people you enjoy. The response to our first On Tour showed us there's something meaningful about creating those moments outside the Distillery, and we're excited to do it again in new locations. Whether guests are longtime Buffalo Trace fans or just beginning to explore bourbon, we hope they leave having discovered more of what makes Buffalo Trace Distillery and its brands so special."
