Before we begin our tour it is worth noting Bourbon distilling and thoroughbred breeding, Kentucky's most famous
products, are both based on the same natural element - limestone water. The Bluegrass Region of Kentucky sits
atop a huge limestone aquifer and for centuries, the limestone formations have acted as a filtration system removing
unwanted minerals, such as iron, from the water and adding calcium. The calcium in the water reacts very favorably
with the yeast during production of Bourbon, making for a better whiskey. This same calcium-rich water also promotes
strong bones and good bone conformation in horses, resulting in the center of the thoroughbred breeding industry being
located in Central Kentucky.
