While finalisation of these plans is still subject to approval by local government, the project will represent a significant investment in Kentucky’s growing bourbon industry.
The proposed facility will distill a number of current and future Diageo bourbon and North American Whiskey brands.
Diageo will purchase approximately 300 acres of property located on Benson Pike in Shelby County. The company expects that the construction project will provide a significant number of jobs and anticipates employing approximately 30 people for whisky distillation and maturation.
