Louisville, KY: Why Go
You won't be able to shrug that deja vu feeling in this historic city where the past is alive.
Amidst horse-drawn carriages, trolleys and historic Main Street, Louisville celebrates the stuff of which nostalgia is made. Inside the famous Louisville Slugger bat-making factory, the baseball museum (hard to miss with a 120-foot bat in front of it!) will take you on a sentimental journey through America's favorite pastime. Next, read up on local history and remember the good old days over a fantastic selection of jazz vinyl at the quaint Twice Told Bookstore.
After you've boned up on Louisville lore, lift your spirits with a bourbon tasting at D. Marie Lounge, high up on the 25th floor of The Galt House. Sample over 100 brands of fine Kentucky Bourbon with a unique tasting kit to help you distinguish the flavors and relish sweet bourbon bouquets. Then strut to the Seelbach Hotel's Oakroom for fine old-fashioned bourbon-laced cooking and the chance to test your newfound knowledge with local experts at the bar. Step out onto the street in time to catch the clanging trolley. Don't pine away for the past, live it in Louisville!
Recommendations & Suggestions
D. Marie Lounge at The Galt House Hotel
140 North Fourth Avenue
Phone: 502.589.5200
The bar at the top of the Galt House has the finest selection of bourbon in town, with over 100 brands. Virtually any bourbon you can name is available, including some of the new small-batch offerings. The bartenders are very generous with advice and will be happy to set you up with their bourbon tasting kit. It includes a menu of the whiskeys, a tasting guide with a flavor wheel on which named bourbons are arranged in categories ranging from "sweet" to "smooth" to "intense", and a place mat with spaces for snifters and notes.
Louisville Slugger Museum
800 West Main St
Phone: 502.588.7227
The Louisville Slugger Museum combines our national pastime's history with history-in-the-making. The bat-making company's 114-year history parallels the history of baseball and memorabilia and stories allow visitors to reminisce about their own personal memories of ballparks, batting practice with dad and sweet summer nights of years past.

Seelbach Hotel Oakroom and Old Seelbach Bar
500 South Fourth Avenue
Phone: 502.589.5200
Chef Jim Gerhardt of The Oakroom is so committed to bourbon that even the bread is made with spent mash from Old Forester. This four diamond restaurant set in a beautifully restored historic dining room offers traditional ingredients of Kentucky cooking with a twist-- such as cornmeal battered fried green tomatoes with a garlic aioli dressing, or a country ham and three-herb pesto stuffed Bluegrass free-range chicken.
The Old Seelbach Bar serves two specialty Bourbon drinks that deserve mention: the signature Seelbach Cocktail, containing the unlikely combination of bourbon, champagne, Triple Sec and bitters, and the Woodford Long Shot, containing ginger, peach and bitters-infused Woodford Reserve.
