The Castle and Key journey has roots dating back to 1887, when Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr built a castle at his Old Taylor Distillery inspired by European architecture. Unfortunately, Prohibition closed the Old Taylor distillery in 1920, and the property changed hands many times before falling into ruin. In 2014 the property was purchased to be the home of Castle and Key. Wes Murray and Will Arvin didn’t just renovate this old distillery; they restored it to its original status as a bourbon tourism destination.
