In 1879, The James E. Pepper Distillery Took Ownership Of The Site. The Pepper Distillery Constructed New Buildings After The Former Structures Were Destroyed In A Fire. Between 1880 And 1901, The Company Built Six Warehouses With The Capacity To Store Nearly 50,000 Barrels Of Whiskey. Around The End Of The Nineteenth Century, They Sold Whiskey To More Than Ninety Brokerage Houses Around The United States. PEPPER DISTILLERY 1884 During Prohibition (1920-1934), The Distillery Was Abandoned And The Company’s Warehouses Were Changed Into Locked Storage For Whiskey Stockpiles From Multiple Distilleries Around The Area. This Method Helped Prevent The Common Occurrence Of Thefts From Small, Rural Distilleries. Just Before The End Of Prohibition In 1933, The James E. Pepper Distillery Sold Their Company To Schenley Products Corporation Of New York. In 1934, Several Buildings On The Site Were Destroyed By A Massive Fire, But The Company Quickly Rebuilt New Structures. Whiskey Continued To Be Made On The Site Until 1962. The Company Still Used The Warehouses For Storage Until 1976. Finally, Schenley Products Sold The Property In 1977. PEPPER DISTILLERY 1936 In 2014 Portions Of The Distillery Property Were Sold To Local Lexington Entrepreneurs, And The Power Of Small Business And The People Of Lexington Began To Make Something Magical Happen At The Old Distillery In The Form Of An Entertainment District With Restaurants, Breweries, Bars, And More. On May 4, 2016, After Years Of Work And With Great Pleasure, It Was Happily Announced That James E. Pepper Would Be Rebuilding A Craft Distillery And Museum In The Remains Of The Historic James E. Pepper Distillery.

Lexington ranked #7 most affordable big city in America by Kiplinger in 2014 and last year Lexington was ranked #16 best large city to live in by Wallet Hub. This year Wallet Hub ranked it #4 best-ran city in America. Millennials now represent the largest generation in the Bluegrass Region, comprising over one-third (36%) of the total population in 2013. What's more, the largest age cohort is now 20 to 24 years old, meaning that the millennial generation will continue to be a Sizeable part of our regional population for many years For the younger generation, Lexington was ranked #6 most inspiring city for young artists by World Wide Learn and #17 best college town by the American Institute for Economic Research. Current and aspiring business professionals will appreciate that Forbes ranked Lexington #16 best place for business and careers in 2015 and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln ranked Kentucky the #4 best state for entrepreneurial activity. And those enjoying retirement will be happy to know that Time Magazine ranked Lexington among the top five best places to retire in 2014.
