Finger Lakes Distilling

What a wonderful experience. Tasted a variety of the whisky and they were all delicious. More importantly the staff, we forgot to ask her name but she was very very nice and knowledgeable, was amazing. We felt so comfortable and welcomed while enjoying our spirits. Don’t miss this top place if you are in the Seneca lake area!

Great hospitality to go with a great whiskey. The bartender was very knowledgeable about their product and about bourbon in general. I had a fun time chatting with him about their various bourbons that they produce. It was cool to be able to see their still running while we were there. I also tried the grappa and a flavored rye whiskey which they also make there. I ended up walking away with a bottle of the small batch bourbon, a bottle of grappa, a Glencairn glass and a nice buzz. Glad my wife drove after that! If you're near Seneca Lake I would definitely recommend stopping in. It's a refreshing break from all the wineries.

Finger Lakes Distilling was a nice place, welcoming and a good respite after a hard day of hiking the local hills and trails of the state parks and beautiful waterways of the Finger Lakes region. Our waitress/bar steward was very nice and knowledgeable of the area. She mixed us a fine cocktail, provided a really good pretzel platter with a champagne dipping sauce! If not for Birdseye Farm, this location may have been a 5 … but being on the strip where it was and comparing the two, I had to make the distinction and I personally liked the other location a hair better. The atmosphere wasn’t bad, it just seemed “same old” verses the other option and the many different options available and the upside of their business. Merely a personal preference … if there were half stars, this would be 4.5.

Hubby is a Scotch drinker, so he wanted to try some of the local whiskeys. He got a flight, and ended up really enjoying a rye whiskey, so he bought a bottle. We enjoyed chatting with the bartender, who was a fellow Clevelander! We really enjoyed this place, the view was fabulous and liked seeing the on-site stills. We would come back again!

First time to Seneca Lake and was so pleased to find a local distillery with great tasting vodka and gin! The views are gorgeous! The venue is very charming! The staff is very helpful and we especially appreciated Paige and Lori!! A must visit when in the area!!

Lovely and clean venue with great products and tasting options, friendly service, and a beautiful view! Something for everyone - liquors, liqueurs, and cocktails. Espresso martini is fantastic, made with their decadent cocoa hazelnut liqueur. Can't go wrong with the Sweet Spot flight, either.

We made a stop at Finger Lakes Distilling during a wine tour with a group of 10. This distillery has a good selection of whiskey, Rye whiskey, vodka, liquors and more! During my visit I tried a flight consisting of one of each of the aforementioned types. The atmosphere at the distillery is warm and inviting, and the side gives you a pretty good view of some still equipment. I would recommend this Distillery if you are on a tour and looking for a stop that will change things up a bit!

One of the best distilleries we visited in the area. Whiskey flights were well designed (you can also design your own) , cocktails were great and the food, though we didn't order any, looked good. Bartenders were super knowledgeable and friendly.

Our next stop of the day took us to our first distillery visit of the trip, and wow--Finger Lakes Distilling did not disappoint. What surprised us most? This was our very first time visiting, and we hadn't even realized they had been established since 2007! Knowing that they had been perfecting their craft for over 17 years, we were eager to dive into the tasting experience and see what they had to offer. The tasting room had a laid-back yet polished feel, with a friendly and knowledgeable staff ready to guide us through their lineup of small-batch, handcrafted spirits. The distillery prides itself on using locally sourced grains and fruits, and you could tell from the first sip that quality and attention to detail were at the heart of their process. The Tasting Lineup I opted for a tasting of four different spirits, and after enjoying those, I was encouraged to try two more--a bonus that made the experience even better. Here's what I sampled: 1 Straight Bourbon - This was beautifully balanced, with sweet corn and vanilla upfront, followed by a warming spicy rye kick on the finish. Smooth yet complex, it was a fantastic introduction to their bourbon lineup. 2 Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon - A true standout, this one had rich caramel and toasted oak flavors, along with the perfect balance of spice and warmth. Aged for at least four years and bottled at 100 proof, it had a bold yet refined character that made it easy to appreciate. 3 McKenzie Straight Rye - If you're a fan of rye whiskey, this one is for you. It had that signature spicy rye bite, but what really made it unique was the sweet sherry cask finish, adding a layer of richness and complexity that lingered beautifully. 4 Bottled-in-Bond Rye - One of the most interesting pours of the day, this rye was bursting with flavors of chocolate, nougat, and dried red fruit. The influence of the barrel aging was prominent, giving it a decadent, almost dessert-like quality while still holding onto its classic rye spice. After those four, I couldn't resist trying two additional spirits: 5 Apple Brandy (Aged 10 Years) - A masterfully aged apple brandy that showcased deep, caramelized apple flavors, balanced with warm baking spices and oak influence. The 10 years in the barrel really allowed this spirit to develop incredible depth and smoothness. 6 Grappa - This was an unexpected favorite--simply sensational. Grappa can sometimes be overpowering, but this one was smooth, refined, and packed with rich grape flavors, making it one of the best versions I've tried. Taking a Piece of Finger Lakes Distilling Home While every single pour was impressive, the one that stood out the most for me was the Straight Bourbon--so much so that I had to bring a bottle home. It reminded me of a classic Rye Whiskey, with just enough spice to keep things interesting but smooth enough to sip neat. Final Thoughts Finger Lakes Distilling far exceeded expectations, and I can't believe it took us this long to visit! With their commitment to quality, incredible range of spirits, and inviting tasting experience, this is a must-visit for anyone exploring the Finger Lakes region--whether you're a bourbon lover, rye enthusiast, or just appreciate finely crafted spirits. It was the perfect stop to break up a day of wineries and breweries, offering something distinctly different yet equally enjoyable. Next time, I'd love to stay a little longer, maybe sip on a whiskey cocktail and take in the atmosphere even more. Cheers to great whiskey and new discoveries!

I had a good feeling I was going to like Finger Lakes Distilling, but I didn't realize how much I would love it. Had tried their McKensie bourbon at a bar or top and liked it, so was happy that it was on the itinerary of our wine and spirits tour. The space, like most wineries/distilleries/breweries up here, overlooks a lake (Seneca in this case) which is very scenic. Inside of the place was very nice and the staff could not be friendlier. I can't underscore the importance of the latter. Selection here is awesome. Some places make 2 bourbons and call themselves a distillery. These guys do whiskey, gin, vodka, varietals and other specialty stuff. I focused on the whiskeys which were awesome. I can see why these guys have won so many medals. I tried the small batch, cannoli infused bourbon, applejack, rye, straight bourbon, bottled in bond, single malt and Applejack. Everything was at least noteworthy. Single malt was awesome, which is the biggest thing I look for as the true test of a distillery. They had just started making the applejack, and it one of these best I've tried. People don't what the hell this is, but it's basically cider-based whiskey; it's great for cooking, drinking and was the first American-invented spirit going back to colonial times. Don't sleep on it. Only one I wish I had tried was the pot stilled, but I had enough to know it's probably good. I took home the applejack and the single malt, as those are really my go to's, however there was a lot worth trying. Also nice to see them offer number of cool cocktail options for those less inclined to drink pure alcohol. We ended the visit with some cigars infused with their cordials, which were an awesome surprise. This place is destination worthy. People think of wine when they think Finger Lakes, but there's more up here than that. This places exemplifies that. Will be back, and will buy their stuff locally.

Had a fun time. Went in by myself. Had a good day, felt accomplished and needed a break. I had one of their Vodka Spritzers. They had options to infuse it with different flavors. I chose blueberry and ginger. It was delicious. I loved that she added 4 plump delicious blueberries on a toothpick in the drink. The bartender/hostess Lisa was super nice and helpful. I sat and had my cocktail. Chatted up with some tourists, it was all very pleasant and relaxing. I love their Vodka that is made with grapes. It's nice and smooth. Would make an excellent Martini. The vibe is super welcoming. I was in there during a slow time, of day in the middle of the week, but they still had a fair amount of business during this time. It was just what I needed, quite pleasant conversation, and a cool cocktail. I imagine it can get quite crowded and loud during the weekend. They have some cool gift items, martini shaker sets, Olives and Olive juice, and some different flavored syrups that they actually use behind the bar. The cherry on top for me would have been if they served Martinis. The bartender was so sweet, when I ordered one, she said it had been a while, but was willing it give it a go. I declined and asked for her suggestion, and as a result I had my wonderful cocktail mentioned above. So, all was good in my world. Plus Lisa and I had fun making a new creation. She said she never did made it with blueberry and ginger! It was fantastic and refreshing. My reason for declining the martini, was because for me the perfect Martini is served in a chilled Martini glass. Which I don't think they had. I did find it odd that you can buy everything you need to buy and take home to make a martini, but do not have it on the menu. Hopefully in the future they will make their own signature martini, perhaps blueberry. Cause I tell you that blueberry syrup, in a chilled Martini glass, with a splash of vermouth, with their grape Vodka, and the blueberry garnish, would have been sublime! I will definitely be back and In the end I was super happy with the drink, it was much more refreshing than a martini. Thank you Lisa it was an excellent suggestion. I ended up buying a bottle of Vodka, and the blueberry syrup. The blueberry syrup had a hint of vinegar in it, and I thought it would make an excellent reduction sauce for my deserts. I also thought I could make a nice salad dressing with it too. Or maybe it's just time for me to chill my Martini glasses at home. Ooh, I almost forgot. They have out outdoor seating, and a woman came in and ordered two drinks, and mentioned she was sitting outside because she has her dog. The bartender told her dogs are welcome both inside and outside. I loved hearing this, maybe next time I will bring my dog. This is also one of the things I love about this side of the finger lakes, dogs are welcome in a lot of businesses.

So impressed with Natalie--she's officially our Bourbon Cousin. So professional, kind, and Natalie did such a fantastic job explaining the products, and facilitating our tasting. Natalie is a prime example of what an educator in the industry should be here in the Finger Lakes. We look forward to our next visit, and certainly hope to see our Bourbon Cousin, Natalie in the foreseeable future--Cheers

Distillery with big pretzels- the view from the chairs is superior to the view from the deck.

Let me start off by saying the distilleries in the area were disappointing and we almost gave up hope and Finger Lakes was the last stop before flying back to CA. We met Dan when they opened at 11am on 9/16/23 and he was a true professional when it came to customer service. My wife and I enjoyed talking bourbons and other distilled spirits w/him and he and let us know Brian would be giving us our tour. Brian has a great personality and a love for the craft of distilled spirits. There is one thing that he said that really impressed before he started the tour " no question is a dumb one and I can be as simple or technical as you would like ". The goal was for everyone to enjoy themselves, it was a fabulous tour and the selections to taste after the tour was top notch. We took Bond Bourbon, Wild Berry Vodka, Gin and the Raspberry Liqueur back to CA. The location and view of the lake is the perfect dovetail! Brian's Mom is a classy lady and a pleasure to chat with. She just beans with pride about her son and the employees. For all my CA people whether you are from the: Bay Area/ Sac-town/Central Valley & Coast/L.A. area or San Diego if you are in the area please visit and support Brian, Dan and Mom at Finger Lakes Distilling you will come away impressed and satisfied. Lastly, Brian I'm stealing the term you used " Distiller's Cut" from you! We will be back in 2025! - Adrian

Newfield NY location. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, tasteful interior. Going to be a great addition to Newfield. The owners of State BBQ and Bakery and Finger Lakes Distillery seem like professional business people, can't wait for extended hours and food options. I only visit during Hunting months, but like what I see thus far. GoodLuck

Would rate this higher stars if I could! Service was the best we've had in the finger lakes, the view was amazing & it's a cute place in general. We wish we found it earlier in our trip so we could enjoy it longer. Natalie took care of us & we loved her!!!

Stopped by here with some friends while on a wine tour! This is a fun spot to try something different while exploring the wineries in the area. There's plenty of outdoor seating and you can try flights or cocktails. I got the gin and tonic and was given a couple options of gin. I enjoyed the flavoring and the strength of the drink. A couple of my friends sipped on various flights and ended up buying a couple bottles. It was very refreshing to sit on the deck and take in the view of Seneca lake while sipping on a variety of drinks.

One of the one distilleries I saw by the wineries so we decided to hop it. My bf got a whisky tasting and I got one of each. Mine had a gin, vodka, whiskey and another. The ambiance was great and we made friends with some locals. We didn't stay long as we had been drinking all day.

Very gorgeous setting for a boozy outing. My party tried a few flights, along with a few standalone drinks. We also had some nibbles-the pretzel was great, as was the charcuterie board. I personally preferred the sweeter liqueurs, but the rest of my party enjoyed most of the whiskeys. I tried the Bloody Mary, but as it was made with whiskey, it was not my thing. Ended up buying 2 bottles of liqueurs and 1 of whiskey(for the hubby). Highly recommend for a casual day trip!

Awesome place! We had several drinks and enjoy ed the view of Seneca Lake. Service was great and so relaxing.

Beautiful group of people! Great whiskey and cigar selection! Our bartender the GOAT. Thank you for being such a gracious host

Great tasting menu and friendly staff. Nice reprieve from the hot day with refreshing drinks as well on the menu.

We have achieved a new high. With an average age of 67.5, our fun group just got kicked out of a bar in Seneca. From being told that we were the most fun crew they had ever served to, within 10 minutes, being denied service on any more alcohol and kicked out. We had a paid hired driver!! We were having fun. We're we a little loud? Perhaps. We're we having a very good time. You betcha. If you plan on going to Finger Lakes Distillery, please reconsider. The manager is s Supreme RICHARD!! Good thing we're going home tomorrow morning.

We greatly enjoyed the wines and service at this place. The service was exceptional and the atmosphere was nice and relaxing. This place is dog friendly. The wines were refreshing and tasteful. The rose was impressive. We highly recommend this place.

Came for a tasting with a few girlfriends and had a great time. We made a reservation for the covered patio. We had the space to ourselves and the rep that did our tasting (Doug) was wonderful. He had great stories and fun facts that he sprinkled throughout the tasting. I surprisingly really liked the soju. I would also recommend sampling the grape brandy. It is unlike anything I have ever had. The bourbon whiskey was nice as well. I bought some of the cassis for making kirs with the white wine I plan to purchase from one of the wineries in the area. The view of the lake from the patio is so beautiful. If you are in the area, I recommend making this a stop.

Was in the region with my girlfriend for Deck the Halls weekend, but we are both cocktail people as well so we decided to go off the passport path. Glad we did. For $5 for 4 tastes, you can mix and match any combination of their distinct whiskeys, bourbons, gins, vodkas, and even a shoju (Korean liquor) The staff was incredibly knowledgeable about all of their offerings and we chatted for a while about different flavor profiles, distilling processes, and mixing potentials. They also sell cigars that have been flavored with some of their spirits. Awesome stop. Well worth it.

Nice location, great staff. In my opinion, the spirits are OK but not great. They have a nice outdoor patio as well

This place is GREAT! And a must-stop during trips out to the FLX! We were lucky enough to go out to Seneca Lake to stay at the Plum Lodge Motel in their YURTS (super cool -- check them out!) for our anniversary. Before checking in, we hiked Watkins Glen and then decided we deserved a tasting at Finger Lakes Distilling, based on a friend's rec. We're so glad we did! Our bartender did a great job guiding us through the various tasting options. We had so much fun! Ended-up doing THREE different flights, to be able to try almost all of the spirits they offer! Left with a bottle of the McKenzie Single Barrel Bourbon -- YUM! Everyone was masked and protocoled during the COVID-19 pandemic -- we felt very safe there! Hope you'll go, and have some fun! And support small business and local!

All I can saw is WOW, what a great place. Of all the wineries distilleries and breweries we visited, this was our favorite experience. First of all, it's such a cool building, and the tasting room is really cool. Great view too. We had our two large dogs and they were very accommodating. Franklin and Finley hung out with us in the tasting room the entire time and they even had homemade dog treats to give them. Some places tolerate dogs, Finger Lakes Distilling encourages dogs! The tasting was so fun. Our dude was so engaging, energetic and passionate. They make great cocktails too! We walked out with a bottle of bourbon.

Never been to a distillery, so stopped by this place. The place was squeaky clean, and they make their own hand sanitizer. Employee who did our tasting was very nice and knowledgeable. My fav was their soju. And I got one of their cool shirts!

80-90% proof alcohols here The gentleman who helped us was so, so knowledgeable and friendly. He was very adaptable and willing to share his insight on different liqueurs based on our taste preferences. I would definitely trust him with all of my liquor choices in any situation. Here's what we got: Whiskey Lovers' - McKenzie Pure Pot Still Whiskey - like a lighter Jameson - McKenzie Straight Bourbon - a lot more bitter - McKenzie Straight Rye - a little bit too harsh - Mckenzie B-I-B Wheated Bourbon - very different, probably second favorite so far The FLXperience - Vinter's Vodka - made with grapes instead of grains - Seneca Drums Gin - on the drier side - McKenzie Straight Rye - a little bit too harsh - Maplejack Liqueur - Apple brandy that they age in a barrel for a couple of years, then they add fresh maple syrup to it. Definitely on the sweeter side, maple forward. - Yobo Soju - super light, mildly sweet. Interesting soju made with grapes instead of the traditional rice, sweet potatoes, wheat, barley, etc. I really liked this soju

Fabulous drinks! Especially the "The Treehouse" invented by wonderful Natalie! So delish! Stop in and enjoy the spirits and the view!

Interesting spot to visit. The best item is the Seneca Drum gin. Very accommodating, nice views, friendly atmosphere.

Love it here. Love the gin and the bourbon. Staff was wonderful and helpful. Will definitely return!

This distillery was an absolutely a must go to!!! Not only were drinks on point (get the Bloody Mary) but the staff is AMAZING!!! The bartender was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. You can tell they are willing to go the extra 2 miles to provide a good experience. Add it to your itinerary!!

Excellent friendly staff.. Very informative and personable. Try the Berry Metro Cocktail!

We had a large group and made a reservation for Saturday 6/27/2020 at 4:00. It was an easy process to book and a smooth transition to a space in back shortly after our arrival. What a selection of terrific products! We all found different favorites from the many choices and enjoyed shopping in the gift shop area. We chose here because of the selection and quality. We would definitely go back! Thanks Brian, Doug and Dan for the "spirited" education ;)

There aren't a lot of Distilleries around the Finger Lakes so finding this was a gem! Unfortunately, it was kind of at the end of all my wine tasting so I thought doing a whiskey tasting might be too much. I ended up drinking one of their cocktails. I really enjoyed my cocktail although I wish it was more on the spirit forward side. I like my cocktails more stronger so I probably should've went with their old fashion which my boyfriend got and it tasted wonderful. The next time I come I will try to do their whiskey tasting. They also have gin and other liquors for sale that really tempted me. The people who work there were also super knowledgable I kind of wish you could take a tour of the place! The tasting room is a little smaller compared to others but I was lucky the weather was so bad that I didn't have to wait.

Cute place, delicious drinks. We didn't stay long because it was a sunny day and they don't have enough shaded seating. The service was okay -- if we had been out of the sun we probably would've stayed all afternoon.

The best distillery in NY state IMO. Keep an eye out for their single barrel selections. Really excited to see what they release as their whiskey ages.

Bad service. We waited and wasted about 40 minutes of our time. It was a Wine trail event day, but they weren't really THAT busy. With that being said, the staff was kind and friendly in the brief time I was able to talk with them. Try the gin(s) for certain. I would've bought some for certain, had I not been waiting for an extreme while. The whiskey was solid as well. They took my cocktail order (I gave up on the tasting after 30 minutes of making eye contact yet getting no service) but never ended up serving me. Get extra people on the bar next time? I wanted to like it here BADLY. I wanted to go home with some nice liquors. But, oh well.

Great experience to taste grape based vodka, gin, whiskey and cordials. Such a great variation from the wine tasting! The owner Brian was extremely cordial and the staff was very knowledgeable!

Loved visiting this distillery. The tastings were all very interesting.. wanted to try them all. Interesting they make a soju and it was very unique and delicious. Enjoyed the gins and whiskeys very much. Cocktails were tasty and good but could use a little more imagination. We had wonderful service when visiting.

I'm not an alcohol snob. Really, I'm not. I'll drink a $5 bottle of wine or well liquor any day of the week. But I wasn't all that impressed by Finger Lakes Distilling. Nothing I tried really wowed me, which was disappointing, because I'd hoped to bring home a souvenir. I also didn't care for any of the drinks being served the day I was there and I was kind of surprised to learn that they couldn't make anything else. I sadly sat and watched my fiance have a drink and counted down the minutes until we could leave.

Nice bartender and delicious gin and vodka. We did the tasting and then enjoyed a cocktail outside on their adirondack chairs. Worth a stop if you're in the area.

A great alternative to all the wineries around. $5 for 4 tastings, you've got to be sure to pace yourself! The fruit liquors were our favorite, but there are a wide range of alcohols here.

Some interesting spirits here and abilities to have cocktails which is always a bonus. Guys behind the bar were knowledgeable and willing to really talk about the different varietals.

Wide variety of gins, whiskey, brandy, vodkas, grappas. Neat setup as you can see the distillery thru a see thru glass pane. Have a small gift shop area. Staff warmed up aftr a few mins, but initially seemed disengaged.

Comfortable atmosphere for these inexperienced hard liquor tasters! The gentleman who served us patiently answered all our questions and offered suggestions for enjoying each type of alcohol we tasted. I would just suggest acknowledging people who are waiting for a tasting. Loved the restroom sign so much I posted it on Facebook.

Glen is the man! My husband and I had an amazing tasting experience. We accidentally found this place, learned so much and enjoyed one of the best Bloody Mary's that has ever touched our taste buds! Highly recommend!

They sat 8 of us down, was ready to spend a lot of money and we sat there for 10 minutes with no service. It was absolutely horrible! The servers all kept looking at us and never came out. Will never ever come back again!

If you come to visit the finger lake wineries this place is a must to hit! The tasting staff are all so friendly and full of knowledge! I am not a vodka or liqueur girl and I did let the staff know that the thought of tasting shots of flavored vodka actually scared me. The staff did a wonderful job of mixing "drink shots" for me which included liqueur and flavored vodka...all so yummy...no complaints from me for sure! Finger Lakes specialty raspberry flavored liqueur and a dash or two of aztec chocolate bitters..need I say more.....You must come here when doing the wine tours! A nice change from the normal wine tasting rooms in the area. Bring the girlfriends here and have a great time!

Ohhh Mackenzie Rye Whiskey, you are such a tease! I had you at ABC kitchen in NY one night in my manhattan on the rocks and you blew me away! Problem is that I live on the West Coast and I will have to find a way to ship you out to me. I can't wait until we meet again and I can see if our second date together was as good as the first. (Yes, I am speaking to the rye whiskey like it is an actual person. No, I am not crazy...it was that good) Thank you craft distillery for taking time to create such a quality product!

I loved the vibe of this place and I am sure my +1 will be dragging me back here to taste more of their collection. The only bad/sad thing about this place, in their opinions, was the 3 tasting rule by NY law, so it says. I definitely think it is possible to try more then 3, at least 4, but I don't make the rules. They served mixed drinks out on the patio area for about $6 so that was pretty cool. The people working are super knowledgeable on the different tastings. You can also get them mixed, like a mini shot of a mixed drink if you don't like the taste straight up. LOTS of options from gin, rye, vodka - I am sure there is something everyone likes. All of the guys said it was so smooth and very good, we even bought a bottle or two. There is a tour but it starts early in the day so we missed it, we never get there early. Lots of things to browse for purchasing, fun little knick knacks and even some clothing with their logo. They had a tasting of their food products too which I thought was pretty cool and of course pretzels to snack on between tastings! For a whiskey, gin, or liquor lover- it is a must stop place. The view is also really great!

Finger Lakes Distilling is a welcome addition to the Finger Lakes region known primarily for its wineries. At first I was skeptical but the moment I tasted their Vintner's Wild Berry Vodka, I was totally hooked! Their Seneca Drums Gin turned me on to gin and makes the best gin & tonic ever. Their Mackenzie Rye Whiskey is perfect on a chilly night paired with hot cocoa. They also have a fun selection of flavored liqueurs made with local ingredients including maplejack, cassis, and blueberry. You can purchase their products at most liquor stores in the area but I prefer going right to the source. The tasting experience is a lot of fun. They offer up good sized samples of most of their stuff which you can try straight up or with a mixer if you'd prefer. Definitely worth a stop if you are on the Seneca Lake Wine Trail!

This place was bumping when we got there. There is a pretty view of the lake right before you walk in. For the tasting, you only get three. They have all types of liquor, from whiskey to brandy. What I liked most about the distillery was the exposed gears and equipment found behind the bar. Besides the products they make, they also have t-shirts for sale and other neat items. Our crowd loved this spot!

First stop of the day was Finger Lakes Distillery and what an experience we had, thanks to the great service from one of the employees who made our experience so worth while. I was hesitant about stopping here because I stick to beer and wine and spirit tasting wasn't so much up my alley. The place is beautiful and has great views so get your camera out. It is bright and airy with woodwork that is just beautiful. I decided to pass on the tastings here but my date tasted a multitude of scotches that he enjoyed. The gentleman assisting us asked me if I liked Bloody Marys (DO I EVER) and poured me a shot consisting of Vintner's Vodka, which was grape based, something I've never tried and their Bloody Mary Mix. He added a bacon salt around the rim and it was definitely tasty. I hate bacon and I hate salt so I tried to avoid that part, but the actual Bloody Mary mix was delicious as was their vodka. Next he made me a Cosmo shot because I had never had a cosmo before. I couldn't even taste the vodka, seriously delicious, seriously dangerous. We talked about life and wine and spirits and he gave us suggestions for where to go next and where to eat, which we appreciated. We ended up purchasing a bottle of whisky that hadn't yet hit the shelves. Apparently it was, "The greatest stuff ever." Again, not a hard liquor drinker but I'll take his word for it. Glad we stopped here, it was a great experience, not just great products, which is exactly what we were looking for during this vacation!
