The distillery opened in February of 2012 by and is located in Lebanon, Kentucky. As mentioned earlier, it was started and is run by Steve and Paul Beam from the famous Beam Family (see Jim Beam).

Given the limited quantity available, if this is something you are interested, we recommend getting there plenty early. Given the limited quantity, size of the bottle (only 375ml), and how little we know about Limestone Branch, we'll going to sit this one out. If you go to any of the locations, drop us a note in the comments on what your experience was like.
