| Castle and Key Distillery One of the most stunning destinations on the distillery grounds is the keyhole-shaped springhouse that stores water from adjacent Glenns Creek and surrounding land. This water is used to make Castle and Key's bourbon, gin, and vodka. |

 |
| Brick walls and exposed beams highlight the event space. |
 |
| A peak inside what remains of the original bottling facility. The roof is gone, but note that some of the old curtains survive. |

| The damaged roof of another building. |
 |
| Old Taylor became National Distillers |
 |
| One wall & many stones remain of another building on the grounds. |
 |
| Remnants of the fallen building have been fashioned into garden beds that will produce herbs used to flavor some of Castle and Key's products. At the end of the herb gardens is the entrance to a huge storage building. |
 |
| Already in use, this storage building is nearly as long as two football fields. |
 |
| The moat that surrounds the castle where the distilling process takes place. |
 |
| Buried beneath several feet of mud and brush was Old Taylor's sunken garden. The fountain, walkways, and small outbuildings are original, and famed Kentucky gardener, Jon Carloftis, restored the garden. |
 |
| Castle and Key is scheduled to open to the public in the fall of 2018, and I can't wait to come back! |
