This place is high brow, high quality. The tour is on par with most city distilleries (local + international). Cocktails are on point.

I hosted my sister’s Jack & Jill baby shower at this distillery. Approximately 60 guest attended and it was an absolute success! At first glance, you see the raw industrial charm of a working distillery, but as a designer, I immediately recognized the potential of the space. The open layout, high ceilings, and cozy yet functional atmosphere made it the perfect blank canvas for a truly unique event.

The space was incredibly spacious, allowing us to comfortably set up seating, a buffet area, and a gift table, with plenty of room for guests to mingle. Stellios and the staff were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, making sure we had everything we needed to bring our vision to life.

One thing to note is that you’ll need to cater your own food, which worked out great for us because it allowed us to customize the menu to fit the theme of the shower. The distillery provides the drinks, and let me tell you, they did not disappoint! The selection was fantastic, and our guests raved about the quality of the craft cocktails and other beverages.

What made this venue so special was the contrast between the industrial vibe of the distillery and the warm, festive atmosphere we created with decorations. I’ll be attaching photos to show how we transformed the space—it went from a distillery to a beautiful baby shower hall with just a little creativity.

If you’re looking for a venue with character, flexibility, and amazing drinks, I highly recommend this distillery. Whether it’s a baby shower, birthday party, or any celebration, this place offers a unique backdrop that can be tailored to any event.

Thank you Stellios and the staff for a successful event!

I found this spot on Groupon..lol..
The bartender was amazing, very informative on the different types of spirits, and the process of brewing the different types of beers into liquor. I didn't get the tour of the distillery. You have to make an appointment for the tour. This was worth a try.
