Who is the best of the best in Kentucky? That’s the goal of the annual Best of Kentucky Awards from Kentucky Living. Best of Kentucky celebrates our hometowns, our people, our culture, and the many institutions that make Kentucky the magical place that it is — for locals and tourists alike. Kentucky Living readers cast votes each year for a multitude of categories, including food and beverage, destinations, and outdoor recreation. To win is not only competitive, it’s prestigious. Congrats to the Best of Kentucky winners around the state; here are the 2022 Best of Kentucky Winners from Hart County, KY!
