Lux Row Distillers

Products From Varco Pruden Buildings Are Key In Creation Of Kentucky Distillery

Using Varco Pruden Buildings' Rigid Frame system, Lux Row Distillers combines eight framing shapes to bring together a 24,341 sq. ft. working distillery and visitor experience in Bardstown, Kentucky.

Along with the Varco Pruden framing systems, the project is clad with Cool Straw Gold and Cool Dark Bronze wall panels in the Panel Rib profile. The roof is covered by the SLR II profile in Cool Granite Gray.

Lux Row Distillers was selected as the Best of Agriculture & Food Processing Winner in the 2019 Varco Pruden Hall Of Fame presentation.

The Varco Pruden Builder was Buzick Construction Inc. of Bardstown, Kentucky. The designer was Joseph And Joseph Architects of Louisville, KY. The project owner is Luxco.

A destination on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, Lux Row Distillers' motto is "Real Roots, Real Family, Real Products." According to information on the company's website, "In 2015, as our whiskey brands continued to grow and expand, we realized we were going to have to build our own site to service our needs going forward. As such, we began the hunt for our very own distillery site. Kentucky, with its rich southern culture, abundant natural resources of both high-quality grains and fine limestone filtered water, was the natural fit. Building our own distillery represents a natural evolution for Luxco.

"We have been steeped in the bourbon business for over forty years, having others distill for us to service our needs. We learned from them and now understand that it is our time to do it ourselves in order to fill the growing demand for our products.

"With over 18,000 square feet, 6 barrel warehouses at capacity and a 43-foot custom copper still, Lux Row Distillers is capable of producing 3 million gallons of spirit per year. When fully complete we will have the composite to process 50 thousand barrels of whiskey annually." The company's brands include Rebel Yell, Ezra Brooks, David Nicholson and Blood Oath.
