Really cool place...loved the Georgia Peach & Bourbon Cream especially.

They were so rude! We stopped in to buy a few bottles after a long day at the ballpark. Before we even stepped in the door one man fussed at my daughters for looking at the water fountain and another made a nasty comment. We only intended to make a purchase and leave, but we will never be back.

Every time I visit GA I stop here and pick up a bottle of bourbon. They are the best. Wish I could get some in Florida.

We went there before they remodeled and took the tour. It was nice and the owner was very friendly. We bought a lot of his products. We stopped by after they remodeled and it was completely different. The owner was very rude when I wanted to take some pictures of the new bar. I think it was his father in law that finally helped me pick out some rye that I enjoyed. Unfortunately we will never be back because of the owners attitude. Dad deserves 5 stars. Owner… not so many

We had a great time tasting with our host, Tony. Thanks for the informative discussion. We left with four of our favorite bottles!

We spent a wonderful two + hours here doing the tour and tasting. It was a great experience. Doug, owner/operator & Master Distiller, led the tour. Doug is a super personable guy with a ton of knowledge about making whiskey. He explains the science behind his craft and makes the tour fun and interesting. We've toured many distilleries and Doug and Moonrise Distillery are by far our #1! The tasting at the end was great, too. Doug teaches you how to drink bourbon. I found out I've been doing it wrong for avery long time. But I'll do it wrong no longer. Go see Doug. Take the tour. Taste his craft. You won't be disappointed and you will learn something.

Came here on a whim. Not disappointed! Atmosphere is calm, relaxed, and a great chill spot. Owner is super knowledgeable and is the Einstein of his trade. Melissa is great at taking care of you and everyone else. Will ABSOLUTELY be back!

The folks here are really awesome. The rye whiskey is amazing like usual. We need to stop by more often.

Thank you Tony for the wonderful tasting and recommendation to check out the speakeasy! You made our experience awesome!
Came here on a road trip from Oregon to Savannah, and this was the highlight of the trip. Meg was so wonderful and helpful with their vast selection of tasty whiskey. Although we just met, she made us feel like long time friends. Southern hospitality is very much alive at Moonrise Distillery!

We visited over 4th of July and were blown away by this distillery. Amazing tour that was extremely enjoyable learning so much about how everything is made. The owner and staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. I’d highly recommend you stop by any time you can. We’ll definitely be back when we’re in town.

Definitely get the snow cream and peach tea. Super friendly employees and very knowledgeable and gave good recommendations for other things to do around town

If you want to enjoy the true Distillery Experience, make SURE you reserve your spot earlier than the night before. I tried to sign up my party of 2 for the distillery tour at 10/11pm the night before and showed up the next morning, to be informed that I had attempted too late to sign up, even though website allowed me to do so. They had already started production when I showed up at opening, so I will make it a point to request the tour at least 2 days in advance next time. Not their fault at all, now I know what to do, though! We opted to do the $20 tasting and had a fun, informative time with the staff. At opening, we were only ones there during the week. We learned about all the products they make, including bourbon-infused ice cream and a variety of sauces. We tasted their Snow Cream, and it was outtta this world, a perfect blend for your holiday drinks! They have a decent amount of space and a great rustic atmosphere that you would hope for when kicking back bourbon n whiskey. Will return on my next trip! We bought the chocolate and cookies n cream booze ice cream, you should too! 🤪

If you are a bourbon lover or aficionado, this place and their speakeasy in Clayton, GA is a must!
The master distiller and recipe guru Doug is just about the most knowledgeable and nice guy you'll ever meet.
My wife and I stopped in while on our 21st anniversary trip and had the best time. Doug sampled the products, answered all of our questions, and showed us the distillery and the process.
They make a really great bourbon, and a really good gin too.
