Whisky History
By Linda Tancs
Many experts generally acknowledge Kentucky to be the premier whisky-distilling region in the country. So it should come as no surprise that the Oscar Getz Museum of Bourbon History in Bardstown chronicles the history of American whisky from colonial days through the 1960s. The facility is named for liquor executive Oscar Getz (whose private collection became the foundation for the museum), which is located (of all places) in a former Catholic seminary. Its exhibits include an old moonshine still showing the process for making corn whisky and a bottle collection from pre-Prohibition to the present day.
