Candy tour - The tour of the candy factory was very interesting. They were making bourbon balls the day we were there.
Our tour guide was very informative. Everyone was very nice from the time we came in the front door, and we even met Sara. I think Ruth would be proud of her family.

🍫 Chocolate - Everyone was so pleasant here at Rebecca Ruth's. I had originally scheduled for 11:30, but was not going to make it, so we called, and they rebooted us to 1:30. How wonderful. Arrived and went on the tour with Charlotte. They must have just moved into their new facility, Bravo. Would have loved to see a production. However, they were all off campus learning new tricks. Wonderful tour just the same and we bought some chocolate to take home. Yum!

A Kentucky treasure. - This little candy factory is a gem. The candy is delicious and it was wonderful experiencing a little slice of Americana. Lucy and Ethel would be proud.

Chocolate tour - The sample was great. Good information on knowing the history behind the chocolatier. It was fun to see the production line. We were one of the first groups to get the tour so it will probably develop more. Good chocolate.

Short and sweet - Interesting history of how the company started. Tour was short and we got a sweet. Great option to break up the distillery tours.

Yummy - Learned the history of the woman behind the great bourbon ball. Felt like stepping back in time. Good tour and not too far from spring cove park.

Skip it and save money for the candies instead! - Not worth the $10. MAYBE worth $5. No candy being made. Didn’t have enough time to look at displays. Got one sample. Same sample was given out at the chocolate shop counter. Guide was very friendly though.

Overpriced Tour - Don’t waste your money on the overpriced tour. Tour was very short and cost $10/person. More like a $3-$4 tour. Candy was good but a little pricey. Use the tour money and buy some candy instead.
