Kise was an unincorporated community located in Lawrence County, Kentucky, United States.

In 1908, Kise had three stores, two mills, two blacksmith shops, and a court presided over by one Squire Berry.[2] In 1919, local farmers began to construct a lime shed at the Kise railroad siding.[3] Farmers in the area reported having excellent crops in 1917.[4]
