History
Whiskey Row embodies the rich history of some of Louisville’s most booming businesses from the mid 1800’s to the mid 1900’s. Louisville’s Main Street became a major trade center for whiskey dealers, blending houses, barrel warehouses & bottling plants; hence the name “Whiskey Row” came to life, & it continues to be one of the most popular locations in the city.
Currently in the heart of Whiskey Row lies Doc Crow’s, where the well-known Bonnie Bros. Distillers warehouse previously thrived. Under the Bonnie Bros. name, five distilled spirits were housed & sold. The history of these whiskey distillers are still seen in Doc Crow’s with markings on the walls from stacked barrels & a replica of the original Bonnie Bros. logo
Doc Crow’s pays homage to the father of bourbon, Dr. James C. Crow, who paved the way for Kentucky bourbon to be born. By utilizing corn & local sweet limestone filtered water, Dr. Crow was able to establish a method of creating bourbon that took the nation by storm. Dr. Crow’s passion & innovation became & still remains the nation’s favorite spirit- bourbon.
