Bardstown calls itself the 'Bourbon Capital of the World,' and there's genuine substance to the claim — Heaven Hill distillery is headquartered here and multiple other distilleries are within the county. The Kentucky Bourbon Trail draws significant tourism, and that visitor economy gives Bardstown a slightly more open social character than comparable small cities of 15,000. The downtown has actual restaurants and bars oriented toward visitors. The social scene is still thin for a foreign man staying any length of time, but the bourbon tourism creates more outsider contact than almost anywhere else in rural Kentucky.
