“Beautiful facility with a large selection of whiskey to taste. Their cocktail menu is excellent as well. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about their whiskeys. Definitely a place to stop at if you are in town.” — Geoffrey Chadwick

“We love the vibe in here where they provided details on their whiskey and cocktails… If you love whiskey you’ll love this place!” — Nancy Wells

“Phenomenal experience. Great bartending, we appreciated the walkthrough of all the drinks and special pours. The Blood Moon house drink was delicious. If you are feeling special, do the Buff Turkey flight. Well worth the cost, and some of the best bourbons I’ve ever tasted. Great stuff.” —
