But seriously.

So how many days do you have and what time are you driving north outta Knoxville?

You may be better off hitting a couple of distilleries and stables before you get to Lexington.




Gonna leave pretty early on Saturday morning and head to Lexington, round 8 or so. I want to go to buffalo trace and woodford, which are pretty close together. Gonna head in to Louisville that evening, spend the night and head back to Dallas on Sunday.

Eta. I'm don't plan on doing anything in Lexington, per se. It's just that both the distilleries I wanna visit are right by.

Where are you planning on staying in Louisville and what kind of night are you looking for? Bar hopping or just a nice dinner and then crash?

You are gonna be blowin' and goin' trying to get all of that done in three days while driving.

It takes me four hours to drive from Jonesburough to Lexington ... so I'm guessing easy six or seven hours from Knoxville to Lexington.

Buffalo Trace, I've been there, that's in Frankfort once you go through Lexington via the bypass and you're heading toward Lousiville ... that's doable maybe.

Woodford is in Versailles, it's a little more off the beaten path ... it's a cool tour we just did this past season. We got in special, I'm not sure but I think most tours there happen in the mornings, you may want to check that in advance. We started early that morning, we stayed in Lexington, we hit Woodford first then drove to Bardstown from there for Heaven Hill then drove back to Lexington that night. Seeing both places was an all day thing and we started in Lexington on a Friday.

Couple of good craft beer breweries in Lexington if you're making good time and want to explore.
