LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Pursuit Spirits’ The Whole Shebang has been named North America’s Leading Bourbon Distillery Tour for 2026 by the World Travel Awards, bringing international recognition to the company’s Whiskey Row experience.

Pursuit Spirits said the award reflects the whiskey it produces, the people behind the brand and the experience visitors share at its Louisville destination. The company thanked guests who have visited and sampled whiskey directly from a barrel during their tours.

The Whole Shebang is now in the running for the World’s Leading Bourbon Distillery Tour award. Voting continues through Oct. 30.

The recognition comes as Pursuit Spirits prepares for a busy fall at its Whiskey Row location. The company said its experience calendar is filling up and visitors are booking further in advance.

In addition to The Whole Shebang, Pursuit offers experiences for visitors interested in learning more about its whiskey and participating in cocktail classes.
