Step inside Oxmoor Farm, one of Kentucky’s most historic estates, founded in 1787 as a 2,000 acre land grant and home to the Bullitt family for over 230 years. In this full podcast episode, we dive into the remarkable stories that shaped this estate, from early Kentucky politics and the Civil War to the very laws that defined Bourbon as we know it today.
Discover how Thomas Walker Bullitt helped shape the 1897 Bottled in Bond Act, the first consumer protection law in U.S. history, and how Wm Marshall Bullitt worked with President Taft in 1909 to define Bourbon’s identity. Learn about Nora Iasigi Bullitt, a Boston born artist, suffragette, and student of Rodin who became the first woman in Louisville to fly in a plane. And meet Kay Stammers Menzies, Wimbledon champion and WWII ambulance driver, who transformed the estate into a place for charity, concerts, and community gatherings.
Oxmoor Farm’s history is The Home of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a place where Bourbon’s hidden legacy has been rediscovered and revived through tours, tastings, and storytelling.
