Kennay Farms Distilling is a family-owned and operated distillery located in Rochelle, offering a great selection of whiskey, vodka, and gin. The tasting room, event space, and distillery are exceptional, with an atmosphere that visitors find fantastic. The owner is personable and very knowledgeable, clearly passionate about the craft. The bartender is friendly and a knowledgeable mixologist, making guests feel welcome. Visitors can enjoy their vodka and gin, both of which are very smooth, with the botanicals in the gin making it delicious. The whiskey, including their upcoming bourbon, is highly praised, with the first bourbon expected to be released in November. The distillery also offers a limited but nice selection of crafted cocktails. Many guests appreciate the friendly service and the quality of the spirits, especially the wheated mash bill bourbon and rye, which has a spicy upfront flavor and a sweeter finish. While their hours are limited, they host private events, so checking their website is recommended. Located across the street is a nice Bistro, perfect for a meal after visiting. Overall, Kennay Farms Distilling is a hidden gem in northern Illinois that visitors highly recommend.
