In April 2025, severe floods damaged Buffalo Trace Distillery, halting production for a month and causing over $30 million in losses.
In April 2025, record floods from the Kentucky River severely damaged Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, submerging its 200-acre campus and halting bourbon production for about a month, causing over $30 million in damage.
Despite flooding production areas, warehouses, and destroying inventory, the distillery resumed normal operations by late May, continuing to produce flagship brands like Buffalo Trace, Eagle Rare, and Pappy Van Winkle.
The flood, one of the worst in the facility’s history, occurred just after a $1.2 billion expansion doubled its capacity.
The distillery has since filled its 9 millionth barrel since Prohibition, launched new whiskeys, and begun renovations.
While the broader U.S. whiskey industry faces declining sales and exports, larger producers like Buffalo Trace are better positioned to recover.
