@wlkynews: 30 years ago today, flames engulfed Heaven Hill Distillery in Bardstown, destroying seven warehouses and nearly 100,000 barrels of bourbon. Today, we look back at the fire through the voices and images captured by WLKY in 1996.
My dad was one of the firefighters there he said the whiskey was going down the road into the rivers and all kinds of stuff

We watched this front the balcony of our apartment near Honeysuckle Lane. The memories of the smell and the way the fire changed the atmosphere will never leave me. It literally cause a fir tornado and a stream of fire. The whole day was Crazy town banana pants.
