Kentucky Derby Museum's Legends Series offers three nights of casual yet in-depth conversations with pioneers and trials of the bourbon industry. The 2024 Legends Series will be hosted by the museum's own Bourbon Authority, Fred Minnick. As a Wall Street Journal Best-Selling Author, Bourbon Curator, and Tasting Expert, Minnick will bring his unique expertise and perspective to this special event.

At the event, guests can enjoy the lively banter between Bourbon Master Fred Minnick and distillery owners and master distillers while sipping on curated selections of their Bourbons. The Legends Series, now in its 11th year, is designed to be a masterful and approachable experience for Bourbon lovers of all levels. This has earned it a place on the coveted “Bourbon Bucket List” by the online publication The Alcohol Professor.
