Awesome distillery with a nice area outside to sit. Their pepper vodka is amazing especially in a Bloody Mary! And very friendly service!!!

Marlins Distillery is absolutely incredible! Their ciders are hands down the best I’ve ever tasted – every single one is exceptional. The vodka and flavored vodka are equally outstanding, far surpassing even Tito’s in quality. Beyond the amazing products, the team is what makes this place truly special. Roger, the owner, along with Shannon and Faith, are amazing – their passion and hospitality make every visit unforgettable. If you’re looking for top-notch drinks and an all-around fantastic experience, Marlins Distillery is a must-visit!

Shannon is amazing and her love of the craft of the spirits is wonderful. Amazing product and would recommend stopping in and really buying anything at all.

Shannon was awesome; we had a great experience at the distillery! We LOVED the Bloody Mary (and that’s coming from one of us who doesn’t like them normally). We can’t wait to go back!

So much better than we expected - came with some friends who live on the Island. Did a tasting and was honestly blown away by how smooth some of these spirits are - highly recommend the pepper infused vodka

Service was exceptional. Taste things for free to figure out what is best for you. Bourbon was great. Liqueur is the best I’ve had in my life. Rum was great. Definitely recommend.

From the service, to the tasting, to the laid back fun atmosphere, I thoroughly enjoyed everything about my first visit to Marlin & Barrel Distillery!

All the drinks sampled were so good and our bartender was so sweet and made the whole experience so fun!
Couldn't decide which bottle to bring home so I ended up picking up a few including a unique spicy vodka that makes a killer bloody Mary.

Great spot to relax with friends and to even make new ones! I love their cellos and their Shoreline bourbon! It’s a great atmosphere, the owner Roger and his staff are friendly and extremely knowledgeable.

Great people, great products and environment. I take all our visitors in for a tasting!

Walked in shortly after they had opened today (6-7-24). Greeted warmly by Shannon and treated as if she has known me forever. My daughter and I were given samples of the different citrus cellos and mentioned that my wife was outside with the "girls" (our fur babies) Shannon told us that they were welcome inside. We let my wife know so she and the girls came in and joined the fun.Excellent juice. I came explicitly for the bourbon. Bought it and the Smoked peppered vodka and the tangerine cello. Thanks for a great start to the weekend!

We have just moved away and this is one of the places we’ll miss the most. The staff is so knowledgeable and friendly. Can’t wait to visit once again and come back. (And load up on their stuff)

Had such an enjoyable tasting experience with my family this past Monday! Lots of variety and a knowledgeable host/pourer - I forgot her name (I apologize!) But she was incredibly pleasant, handled various parties coming and coming with ease. We ended up not buying anything but it wasn't because we didn't like it, my husband just hit his bourbon quota for the week?? but I ensured our 'host' was tipped well for her time and I encourage/hope anyone who goes and doesn't purchase anything?

Stopped in on our way through from Savannah and really enjoyed it. Their free tasting was impressive as they have quite the selection. We were able to sample almost everything they offer, and the person behind the bar was very pleasant informative. We ended up leaving with a bottle of blueberry vodka. We will definitely stop in again on our travels.
