You may want to check but I believe that they also give tours. Awesome spot,, specifically if you love sweets.

One of my favorite things to get is a little square peanut butter nugget covered in chocolate. When I tell you, it's 1 million times better than a Reese's it is unbelievable.

Wish I could bottle the smell of this candy factory from the parking lot & share it with everyone!…read more The smell takes me back to reading the book Charlie & the Chocolate Factory. For 120 years, Anna's family passed this amazing recipe down & after working in her parents basement she now sells all over the world, even to Williams Sonoma. And now Vegas regularly. I'd rather visit the factory when in Kentucky cause they make the candies & package them freshly for you right there. Also to visit w/ Anna, she's such a wonderful passionate woman. Huge fan of the Bourbon Sea Salt Caramels mmm... perfect amount of salt to keep you wanting another piece. The Chocolate Modjeska's are what I wish I had for my s'mores since I was a lil kid! The Original Caramel Modjeska's are not only divine alone, but quarter them & the Bourbon Seat Salt on top of your sweet potatoes. Oh, heavens! Homemade, down to the marshmallow in the middle and I'll never like regular store bought marshmallows again. Also we got a recipe for the Modjeska's from the Food Network. Perfect lil gift from the heart & soul of Kentucky & for yourself & loved ones. I have been a regular since October & have gifted many people including my horse grooms cause I wanna share it w/ everyone. Mmm it's so good!

Advent Calendar: I have to confess that I've had an Advent calendar every Christmas for most of my…read morelife and intend to keep getting one for every Christmas season to come. An Advent calendar is essentially a countdown to Christmas beginning on December 1st and lasting until December 24th. There are 24 numbered "doors" or "windows" to open. Behind each one is a piece of chocolate (usually Christmas themed). Popping the chocolate into my mouth each year instantly brings me back to the best Christmases of my childhood. Typically, I opt for a more Christmas themed image, but being the Star Wars fan that I am, I was gifted with a Grogu stylized one from The Mandalorian. This particular calendar is distributed in the U.S. by Galerie Candy, and I believe the chocolate is made by Jean-Talon Chocolate in Canada. My only minor complaint is it seems like a wasted opportunity to not make the chocolates into various shapes from the Star Wars universe (ships, characters, weapons), they are instead the same shapes found in other Jean-Talon Chocolate Advent calendars. Luckily, that means they also have the same great nostalgic taste and are Doughboy approved Doughboy_Food_Reviews

All that I tried were delicious. The bourbon ball, Ruth's Mint Kentucky Colonel, the pumpkin spice. The business has been around since 1919 and is a fourth-generation KY business. I found their business brochure at the Kentucky welcome center and was intrigued immediately. The story of Ruth Booe and her candy making techniques which led to her and her friend's success. Be sure to try or get some of the original "Bourbon Ball" Invented by Ruth Booe in 1938. It consists of a creamy bourbon center with the kick of real bourbon, covered in dark chocolate, and topped with a Southern pecan. I did taste that kick when I sampled it. I purchased a variety box of make my own as well as some bourbon balls to take back home for family and friends. Got my mom some dark chocolate toffees since she loves toffee. The store is cute and welcoming. Staff is super friendly. Go check this place out and support local and long time business!

They are a tiny store, you can easily miss them, but they do set right off the road with good signage. The lot is small, but adequate. My visit was on a weekday in the Spring and they were not busy. I was greeted warmly and offered a sample of one of their well know bourbon candies with a single pecan on it. Of course I enjoyed and have actually had before. They make the chocolates for many of the distilleries in the area and have for decades. The business itself dates back to 1919. I did not do a tour, but it appears they offer. Ruth's offer a lot of variety and I do mean a lot! They also some of the branded boxes like Makers Mark. The service was top notch as everything was explained. I decided on a non bourbon chocolate so my wife could enjoy too. So I ordered a half pound of three varieties of chocolate (white, dark, milk) with almonds. The chocolate's in the case are put in their own box, as opposed to the gift boxes. I really enjoyed after returning from my trip, wife too! Easy 5 stars and will return at some point.

FYI they no longer have the post office services available. They had hazelnut filled chocolates half price. But I was after bourbon balls and chocolate covered pretzel rods. There is a section of reduced priced candy its where I found the chocolate covered maple cream. The aroma of chocolate when you walk in makes me feel like I gained 5 pounds (kidding mostly). A friend of mine loves black jelly beans and this is one of two places I can get just plain black jelly belly beans. You can also find UK items, pottery, post cards, books. Parking they have a private lot so you don't have to worry about parking on the street.

The Sweetest Spot in NuLu! [Louisville KY]…read more On our last day in Louisville we stopped by this candy store before heading to the airport. There was some kind of gutter work going on in this part of the street so parking was limited. Unfortunately, when we came by for ice cream next door on our first day in Louisville the candy shop was already closed for the day. The shop is a small, family-owned business operating since 1921. Inside are displays of handmade candies, delectable treats like Old Fashion Kentucky Bourbons and Muth's Modjeskas as well as unique novelty treats like horseshoe shaped chocolates. I was the first customer and I already knew what I wanted. The chocolates were already pre-packaged, I chose a bag each of the milk peanut clusters and milk chocolate raisin clusters... they were fresh and so delicious! I also grabbed a free complimentary sticker for my collection. Needless to say none of the chocolates made it back home to Sacramento. Gone mid flight LoL! Instagram: @muths_candy Review #3913
