Where Bourbon’s Past Lives On | Neat Adventures at Oscar Getz Museum of Bourbon History

Welcome to Episode 2 of Neat Adventures – a short cinematic dive into one of bourbon’s most fascinating museums: The Oscar Getz Museum of Whiskey History, nestled inside historic Spalding Hall in Bardstown, Kentucky.

This isn’t just a building full of bottles—it’s a living archive of America’s whiskey journey. From George Washington’s distillery to moonshiners, saloons, and Prohibition, this museum traces the rise, fall, and resurrection of our native spirit.

Inside you’ll find:
• Hundreds of rare and vintage bottles
• A powerful moonshine exhibit
• Vintage bourbon ads and medical claims
• The story of Carrie Nation and the Temperance Movement
• The Toddy Beam Room—and a chance to visit Toddy’s Liquors right across the street
• And the life of Oscar Getz, a whiskey executive who made preserving history his life’s work
