Shmidt Spirits is a hidden gem with attentive and hospitable staff. The cocktails are inventive and unique, not just your typical mix. The distillery offers a great selection of spirits, with Cobalt and Bourbon being popular choices. Visitors can enjoy a tour and tasting guided by passionate staff members. The experience is highly recommended, with the option to grab a bottle to take home and enjoy.
Customers describe the location as shocking at first, being at the back of a random alley, but appreciate the proximity to public transportation. The small space is a labor of love by the co-owners, who are fun, knowledgeable, and passionate about making good liquor. Customers enjoyed learning about the liquor-making process and extensive tastings, finding the hibiscus gin and cocktails made with the rye, rum, and Maryland-style whiskies particularly interesting. The owners' enthusiasm and willingness to discuss their work contribute to a great overall experience for whiskey enthusiasts and cocktail lovers.
