What to Expect

Inside the Rickhouse: The Legacy of Deatsville is a full-day, immersive journey
through the craft, heritage, and rare places that have shaped generations of Heaven Hill American Whiskey culminating in unprecedented access to the historic Deatsville
rickhouses. 

Your day begins at the Heaven Hill Springs Distillery, opened in 2025 and marking Heaven Hill’s return to distilling in Bardstown for the first time since 1996.

Enjoy a private guided tour and premium tasting, including the opportunity to taste and purchase
Heaven Hill Deatsville 13-Year-Old Bourbon Whiskey, a limited-edition release drawn from one of the most distinctive aging sites in the distillery’s 90-year history.
Next, travel by private transportation to the Heaven Hill Bourbon Experience for a visit to historic Rickhouse Y with a premium pour, followed by cocktails and a private lunch at Five Brothers Bar & Kitchen, with time to relax and shop. 

The experience concludes at the legendary Deatsville rickhouse site. Built in the 1930s, these open-air wooden structures helped define the character of some of Heaven Hill’s most celebrated bourbons and were long favored by Master Distiller Emeritus Parker Beam.

During your private visit, you’ll step inside the rickhouse and taste whiskey drawn straight from a Deatsville-aged barrel — an access point reserved for only a select few.  Private transportation and an experienced tour leader are included throughout.  More than a tour, this is an invitation to experience Deatsville’s enduring legacy — where tradition, time, and craftsmanship converge.
