An Exclusive Maker’s Mark Experience Found Nowhere Else
Step beyond the traditional distillery tour and experience the legacy of Maker’s Mark in a way few ever can. The Samuels Legacy Day is a one-of-a-kind VIP experience available exclusively through Sip Kentucky Bourbon Tours, taking you behind the scenes of the Samuels family, Star Hill Farm, and Maker’s Mark for an unforgettable day of bourbon, history, hospitality, and exceptional access.
This isn’t just a distillery tour. It’s an invitation into the living room of one of bourbon’s most influential families.
Step inside the Samuels family’s historic land-grant home and experience more than two centuries of bourbon history, family traditions, and Kentucky lore. On select days, guests are personally led around the property by Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Famer Bill Samuels Jr. or Rob Samuels, who shares the stories, people, and moments that helped shape the Maker’s Mark legacy.
As you explore the grounds and historic home, you’ll discover the places where history was made and hear firsthand stories about the Samuels family and their extraordinary influence on American bourbon.






Go behind the scenes and experience the people, places, and stories behind one of the greatest families in bourbon and Kentucky history. The Samuels Legacy Day offers extraordinary access and experiences that go far beyond a traditional distillery visit.
