Elkins Distilling - Tasting Room & Mercantile

Elkins Colorado Whisky in Estes Park is a true gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and enthusiasm. The atmosphere is inviting and perfectly captures the rustic charm of the Rockies. What truly made our visit exceptional was Marina. Her knowledge and passion for the whisky were evident, and she graciously guided us through their impressive selection. She allowed us to sample everything we were curious about, patiently answering all our questions.

We ended up taking home two absolutely delightful bottles: the Honey Whisky, which is smooth, sweet, and bursting with natural honey flavor, and the Spicy Ranch, a unique and refreshing condiment that packs a fantastic kick. Both are truly exceptional and reflect the high quality and craftsmanship that Elkins puts into their whisky and products! We also took home two great glass wares!

If you're in Estes Park and love whisky (or even if you're just curious!), a visit to Elkins Colorado Whisky is a must. And if you're lucky enough to have Marina guide your tasting, you're in for a real treat! We can't wait to return and explore more of their fantastic offerings. Highly recommended!

The best tasting vodka I have ever had, try the peach. The bbq sauce is out of this world as well! Cant wait to see what this company does in the future. This might be the next huge brand of amazing distillers.

Honestly cannot rave enough about this distillery! The whiskey is absolutely delicious. The pecans were incredible. Super friendly and accommodating staff. Cannot wait for our next visit and they were so sweet recommending lunch places for us in Estes Park!!

Marina and Cary were so welcoming and fun! We loved the energy they brought and the knowledge they shared. You should absolutely drop in if you have the opportunity.

We walked up at closing time and Marina and Carrie were so gracious and let us by the bottles we needed for our family back home. Super nice and would recommend

Had a fun experience with tasting. We like what we tasted. Ended up buying 3 bottles. Really enjoyed ourselves.

I came in around mid-December in 2023 on a trip with my friend. I have fond memories of this place simply because it was the first time my friend ever agreed to indulge in alcohol with me and the staff was more than willing to encourage his curiosity about moonshine samples that led to him buying a bottle for home. Will return for this fond memory and the great quality/service from the employees!

I love their Whiskey!!

Was given many taste samples. All were good. The lady serving me was very knowledgeable.

Marina was awesome. Greeted us when we came in, had all kinds of interesting information and suggestions. We tried all of the whiskey and vodka, and although it wasn't all for me it was still really good. The aged bourbon was ridiculously good, and I've never been much into bourbon. They also have a bunch of different salsas and sauces that you can try as well. Highly recommend stopping in for their free tasting and to take a look around.

Super friendly. Great personality

Stopped in by happenstance and was glad I did. I was treated by an amazing woman behind the bar who was more than happy to let me try a few of these awesome spirits. I was not terribly impressed with their bourbon, but what got me was “Colorado Winter!” It was like Christmas in a glass!

Delicious alcohol and great service

Giving Marina at Elkins HIGE props for her customer service and o really positive energy. Thank you for the great time and the taste tests. We had a great time exploring all of the great options for purchase.
Have to try the Rocky Mountain Whisky, Colorado Peach Vodka, Rocky Mountain Lemonade AND the Rocky Mountain Sweet Tea flavored vodka. So many amazing choices. Those were ours. The sauces were phenomenal- will for sure be back again and again.
Again, thank you Marina! You for sure influenced our decisions on what to purchase.
Store is clean and stocked nicely

Carrie & Missie were so warm and welcoming! We loved sampling sauces, butters & the vodka and whiskey! The lemonade, sweet tea and peach vodkas were so amazing, and the whiskey tasting was an enjoyable experience. We loved the conversation and the experience! Thank you!
