Kentucky Heritage Bourbon Tasting

On Derby Day, we honor the Young Family’s Kentucky roots as we explore the journey of Bending Branch 1840’s bourbon program through a unique and interactive tasting experience. Join daughter-father duo Alison Young and Dr. Bob Young as they guide guests through a tasting of bourbons from both the bottle and straight from the barrel. Taste and savor the evolution of bourbon that has spent additional time aging in barrel.

Giving back to the community has also been an important part of the Young Family’s business, and a portion of each event ticket sold will be donated to The Boys and Girls Club of Comfort. For those interested in giving more, there will be an opportunity to do so at the event, and Dr. Bob and Brenda Young will make a matching contribution.
