ABOUT BLUEGRASS BOURBON TOURS

Your Kentucky Adventure, Your Way

Bluegrass Bourbon Tours is more than just a tour company; it's a passion project brought to life by Melanie, a proud U.S. Army veteran and Kentucky native. With a deep love for her home state, Melanie has created a unique blend of expertise and personal touch.

A Kentucky Native's Perspective

Growing up in Glasgow, Kentucky, Melanie has a deep understanding of the state's rich history, culture, and, of course, its world-renowned bourbon industry. She's dedicated to sharing her insider knowledge and passion for Kentucky with every visitor.

HerStory

After serving in the military, Melanie Lopez discovered a new passion for Bourbon tourism while working part-time for another company. This inspired her to create Bluegrass Bourbon Tours, a more personalized, boutique experience for clients seeking something truly special.

Melanie founded Kentucky’s only female veteran-owned Bourbon tour company to reflect her passion for unforgettable experiences and a natural gift for connecting with people. Determined to stand out, she offers hands-on, personalized service that brings Kentucky’s rich heritage to life.

"I wanted to create something that stands out," says Melanie, who guides guests not only through world-renowned distilleries but also to Kentucky’s majestic horse farms and hidden local treasures.

"Kentucky’s more than just bourbon!"

Driven by her love for sharing the Bluegrass State, she crafts private, customized tours for a diverse audience eager to experience the full charm of Kentucky.
