"Bourbon in Kentucky" is a song written by Ryan Tyndell, Hillary Lindsey, and Gordie Sampson, and recorded by American country music artist Dierks Bentley with backing vocals by Kacey Musgraves.

The song peaked at #45 on Country Airplay six weeks after its release date, becoming Bentley's lowest charting single at the time.

Bentley told Great American Country, "I’ve never heard anything like ‘Bourbon’ before…I really love the angst of it.

"[2] Jon Freeman of Country Weekly gave the song an "A", comparing its production to both U2 and Bentley's late 2011-early 2012 single "Home".

"[3] Matt Bjorke of Roughstock also compared the production style to U2, and said that "The melody is appropriately moody as it matches the lyrics about a man who doesn't have any way of getting over and past a relationship, as he's clearly lost without the love of his life.
