Sulphur Lick is a rural unincorporated community in northwestern Monroe County, Kentucky, United States. The community is located around the intersection of Kentucky Route 678 and Kentucky Route 839.

"'It was named for the licks on Sulphur Creek (now Skaggs) where buffalo, deer, and other animals would gathel from pastures of grass and cane to lick the salt and sulphur from the rocks along the creek bed. A sulphur spring exists within 1 mi. of this place.' (By members of the Sulphur Lick Homemakers Club.
