"A quaint little shop in Louisville with plenty of souvenirs and Churchill Downs memorabilia! They have everything related to horse racing, plus art, cocktail-making essentials, and other unique items. If you're looking for souvenirs or anything related to horse racing, I highly recommend stopping by. The shop was very nice, and the staff was so helpful and friendly. We’ll definitely stop in again when we’re back in Louisville!"
"First time here—what an amazing store! Taste of Kentucky has been around for 35 years, and the owners, Robert and Karen, are incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and caring. The customer service was fantastic. This store truly has something for everyone looking for Kentucky-made products."
"The owner of Taste of Kentucky and her staff were absolutely phenomenal! I have never encountered such friendly, engaging, and enthusiastic sales associates who are also extremely knowledgeable about all the amazing products sold in-store and online. Going forward, this will be my destination for gifts—whether for weddings, housewarmings, birthdays, or any occasion."
"Absolutely love this place! Whether you're looking for Christmas gifts or something special for a loved one, they most likely have it. Their selection of bourbon candies is to die for—if you’ve never had Modjeskas, you’re missing out!"
