The Bard Distillery

Thomas Bard, cofounder of The Bard Distillery, is a direct descendant of William Bard, who, along with his brother David, founded Bardstown, Kentucky, in 1780. William's son Isaac, an ordained minister, came to Muhlenberg County in 1823, settling just a few short miles from the site of The Bard Distillery. The Bard family has remained on the same piece of land for nearly 200 years. This is their home. They'd love for you to think of this place as your home, too.
