This is not your typical bourbon tasting. The Legends Series gives you a taste of fine bourbon, along with a chance to chill with the Legends themselves.
The Legends Series offers three nights of casual, in-depth conversation with pioneers and titans of the bourbon industry. Each evening features a different Bourbon Master who hand-picks a selection of bourbon tastings. Each legend shares his or her expertise and engages guests through their senses as they taste fine bourbons and enjoy hors d'oeuvres.
Tickets: $75 per person, per event

With hard work and a steely resolve, Rabbit Hole’s founder/whiskey maker Kaveh Zamanian broke into the American whiskey business in 2012, and since selling his first bottle of whiskey in 2016, he leads one of the industry’s most rapidly-growing spirits brands.
The Kentucky Derby Museum’s own Bourbon Authority, Fred Minnick, curated a very special lineup of three Master Bourbon Tastings to celebrate the Legends Series’ 10th year! As a Wall Street Journal Best-Selling Author, Bourbon Curator, and Tasting Expert, Minnick will host the Series and bring his own flavor to each event.
The Legends Series is designed to be a masterful and approachable experience for Bourbon lovers of all levels, and this has earned it a place on the coveted “Bourbon Bucket List” by the online publication The Alcohol Professor.
