Kentucky Bourbon Trail®
Overview
A brand worth savoring.
The KBT™ was formed 25 years ago and has grown into one of America’s most beloved ways to taste and explore 46 distilleries, drawing more than 2.5 million visitors annually from all 50 states and 25 countries. After a national search of agencies, Lewis was selected to develop a new brand and website as part of their 25th Anniversary celebration in 2024.
Brand Identity
The distilleries on the trail have created new and elevated experiences that are bringing in a more affluent guest. To better reflect today’s experience there was a need for a new brand identity that conveyed a joyful sense of discovery, elevated adventure, and attainable luxury.
The Digital Experience
In addition to the new identity, creating a new digital experience was critical. A reimagined Kentucky Bourbon Trail® that encourages greater exploration, slowing down and savoring the moment in an online experience that’s easier to understand, navigate, plan and enjoy. The new site now allows for better tracking, optimization and understanding of visitors which will in turn help the KBT and distilleries better plan for the future.
