Kentucky is a landlocked state of the American South and Midwest, celebrated worldwide for bourbon whiskey, thoroughbred horse racing, and a remarkable cave system beneath its rolling bluegrass hills. From Louisville's vibrant restaurant scene to the Daniel Boone National Forest's sandstone arches, and from the bourbon distilleries of the Bluegrass Region to the cultural traditions of Appalachian Eastern Kentucky, the Bluegrass State offers a deeply American journey through heritage, nature, and culinary culture.
