Mudslide damages Buffalo Trace Distillery property, production unaffected

A mudslide occurred early Monday morning at Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, resulting in a Conex cargo container and a temporary office falling into the Kentucky River. Fortunately, no injuries were reported, as there were no employees in the affected area at the time of the incident. The distillery, which is owned by Sazerac, confirmed that production and tours would not be disrupted during the cleanup process. The mudslide was attributed to historic flooding that has affected much of the region recently. Cleanup crews are working with professionals to handle the situation safely. State officials are also addressing broader flooding issues in Kentucky, with financial assistance being provided to impacted families.
