welcome to the edge of bourbon country
Kentucky has a lot of nicknames, but probably one of the most popular is "Bourbon Country." In Northern Kentucky, we're proud to be the edge of Bourbon Country, an Official Gateway to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail and home to some amazing history & distilling rebirth. So while you're in town (or even if you're just passing through), be sure to stop at one of our unique distilleries, bars, and restaurants and sample a few.
A short walk across the river from downtown Cincinnati, Northern Kentucky gives you the opportunity to enjoy the big-city feel with small-town warmth & hospitality. There's plenty to do, see, eat, and drink to keep you occupied on your own bourbon adventure.
The B-Line
