rebecca ruth candy tours & museum

I enjoyed the tour although it was primarily due to who was giving it. The tour is short with not much to see. You do get a free sample, but I felt like it was sure expensive for a 15 minute tour.

The tour is very short and small, but also very inexpensive. I found it interesting that all of their chocolates are shipped from that one seemingly small operation. Our tour guide was nice and the kids enjoyed it. The tour itself could be missed, but we enjoyed learning the history and seeing the candy and chocolate making in action. Their bourbon balls are great!!!

Really overpriced. We didn't do the tour after reading other reviews. We didn't like the bourbon balls at all here that had a really white, sweet nougat filling. The one they gave us at the Buffalo Trace distillery was more of a maple filling and we liked it better. I'd still never buy them. Must be an acquired taste and a generous bunch of followers.

The antique confection equipment was fun to see, but the candy was not being made during our visit, so we missed most of the visual.

Didn't take the tour but this is the company that makes pretty much everyone in the areas candy. If you buy the "Bo Bo"'s as they call them they are significantly cheaper for the exact same thing.

They gave out samples. Had a gift shop/candy shop as you went in. The tour was very interesting. It showed how the candy was made, the equipment, and old pictures of when it started,

Love the Rebecca Ruth chocolates but expect to pay $16-$20/lb. (as all good chocolate is pricey) The tour is $3 and it not worth it. One small room of antiques, even smaller room that is the kitchen. Back room has enrober and packaging. Tour guide is very knowledgeable.

Our tour guide knew the business and made the tour worth while. A bit pricy so be aware. The bourbon balls were excellent.

$3 each for a really sketchy, basic, tour, with one of the stickiest floors you will walk on before getting back into your car.Lots of history here and my hat is off to Ms. Ruth for making this a great business. But now there is a lot of old junk lying around and the tour should be free so that they can sell more candy.We had four pieces of candy between the two of us and it was ok but nothing special (and very expensive -- $4.17 for the 4). There are other things in the area and I'd skip this one.If this review is helpful then please indicate so below.

Price prohibitive for me. Bourbon balls or not. Got a free sample and left. I don't understand how chocolate can be so expensive. Did not take tour. A candy store that is old. It is nice inside, nothing special, only history.

Lovely small place with a interesting tour which showed us how it goes there and how the burbon chocolate is made.

This was the neatest tour and enjoyed the lady that gave the tour. It was very interesting and we liked all the antiques that was there. The candy is very good. Try the bourbon balls, very Goood!!!

Short but very informative tour. Was a Saturday so no production was going on. Free sample after tour. Fee for tour

We bought some bourbon chocolates and they are delicious. Otherwise I wouldn't bother for the tour or visit since bourbon chocolates are available at the many distilleries.

Don't waste your time and money on this tour. The candy is ok but the tour was more about the old equipment that was setting not used.
