We had a great time! Tom was an amazing guide through all the offerings and this place has so many great ones! The Rye is very well balanced and they have creative aging.

Finally got the chance to stop in and I was not disappointed. The staff was great and the liquer was too. I liked the bourbon and particularly liked the rye. Worthwhile stop for any distillery fan!
