About Monk's Road (Log Distillery)

Monk’s Road Bourbon is produced by Log Still Distillery in southern Nelson County, Kentucky, a region renowned for its bourbon heritage. The brand is named after the winding road leading to the distillery, symbolizing the journey of craft, faith, and community that inspired its creation. The distillery itself is built on the site of the retired Cold Spring Distillery, a historic 19th-century distillery, preserving the legacy of bourbon production in the area. Visitors can still see natural springs flowing across the bedrock, just as they did during the Cold Spring era.

Monk’s Road Bourbon embodies both tradition and innovation, connecting modern bourbon enthusiasts with the rich history of southern Nelson County. It serves as a tribute to the craftsmanship of past distillers while offering a contemporary expression of Kentucky bourbon. The brand also functions as a destination for bourbon tourism, inviting visitors to experience the heritage and artistry behind each bottle.

On the quiet hills of Gethsemane, Kentucky, a new chapter in bourbon country began — not with a blueprint or a business plan, but with a vision. Wally saw possibilities in what others had forgotten. Once home to a bustling distilling community, these grounds had fallen silent for decades. Yet beneath the weathered distillery ruins and rolling hills, the spirit of Kentucky craftsmanship still lingered — waiting to be awakened.

What started as an idea soon became a calling: to revitalize a historic distilling site and reimagine it for a new generation. With faith, perseverance, and a deep respect for the past, Wally began restoring the property that would become Log Still Distillery, proudly bearing the DSP-KY-47 designation once held by the F.M. Head Distillery.

From the first pour to the final brick, Log Still was built to bring people together — to share stories, music, and moments that matter. It’s more than a distillery; it’s a gathering place. A return to community. A celebration of what happens when heritage and hospitality meet in perfect harmony.

Today, the hum of the stills, the laughter of guests gathered on the porches of our Bed & Breakfast homes, and the echoes of music from The Amp fill the air once again — proof that bourbon’s truest sound isn’t just in the glass, but in the people and the place that give it life.
