Tour and tasting

Definitely worth a stop. See the distilling process followed by a tasting. Informative and fun! The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Check out the music barrels.

Thank Chris B

Thank you for the review! We are glad you had a great time on our tour. The next music barrel should make an appearance later this year or early 2019! Keep an eye out for the release. Cheers, Amanda

Excellent Tour, Excellent Product

If you like good conversation and good whisky this is the place to taste & buy! Also I am not a Gin fan in general but their Gin is excellent. This is a must stop if you are in Sebastopol.

Thank Heather C
