I came here with a friend today and met Kristy the bartender here and had a super warm welcome. The distillery itself was very cool! Very vibey, and very detailed. Kristy gave us very descriptive details about the drinks, their whiskey, and even gave us a small tour of their distillery! Awesome experience and better service. 10/10!
I’ve lived down the road for 4 years now, and I visited ORD for the first time today. I was blown away by the aesthetic, and I was only further impressed by Kristy, the amazing bartender. She’s super knowledgeable, friendly, and one of the best bartenders I’ve ever had the pleasure of talking to. I’ll definitely be coming back here with more and more friends!
My wife and I just had an incredible experience for Mother’s Day afternoon. We visited the Olde Raleigh Distillery in downtown Zebulon.We enjoyed meeting and talking with Kristy who was tending the bar in this beautiful facility. Kristy is an amazing individual that has some great ideas on promoting this incredible distillery. We learned about the unique batches of bourbon that have been and that are being distilled locally.My wife enjoyed a beautifully crafted smoke Old Fashioned with Batch #13. I enjoyed Batch #13 neat.It is so exciting to see a bourbon distillery that has received nationwide award winning recognition for select batches in 2023 with NC roots in our backyard!We believe it is worth the drive for anyone to discover this incredible gold nugget in Zebulon.
A small place in a quaint town. It was not what we expected, but it was amazing. The workers were friendly and added to the experience. A short tour of the distillery was enlightening and gave us a new perspective on the owner and how the place came to be. The Bourbon was the best part. So much flavor and very smooth. I'm glad we took the time to visit.
Excellent Whiskey, great drinks, awesome bartenders. Everyone here is passionate about their product and it’s infectious.Even got to meet and talk with Brandon, the master distiller. Great dude! Took the time to show me and my family around!Thanks for the Whiskey!
Booked a tour for my boyfriends birthday while we were in Raleigh and it ended up just being the two of us which was great! Christy started us off with a few anecdotes and awesome facts! Sam was incredible on our tour, he answered questions and informed us of the meticulous process it takes for them to hand create each bottle of bourbon they produce. From pouring the barrels to hand sticking each label, the process was incredible. Haylee then did our tasting, she was informative and well versed, as someone who is not into bourbon all the time it was wonderful to see the differences of the flavors especially after hearing about the distilling process. All the staff was incredible, big shout out to Christy, Sam and Haylee for making our experience so special! We love you guys and we will definitely be back.
Had a great experience at a private whiskey tasting there. Kristy was awesome! The whiskeys are one of a kind!
This place was so elegant and also so tight. Like really an amazing service experience with impressive whiskey. The atmosphere and ambiance was so welcoming, high class, and also friendly. Special props to Krissey, such a gift of a human and really treated us like friends in town. She told us the whole history of the place and made us connected to the spot. Thank you Krissey!!
The best tour we have ever been on! The staff and drinks are amazing! They are kid friendly too, We will be back soon!
This has been the most amazing Bourbon, drinks, people, place that you must visit asap. Love it here and will definitely become a regular.

I got married here on February 10, 2024! I had the best experience on the day of and throughout the entire planning process. We did our ceremony and reception in the event space and our cocktail hour on the bar side. Everyone helping on the day of made everything run so smoothly. Kristy, our wedding coordinator, did an amazing job doing exactly what we asked of her. Everything from cocktail hour food setup, playing and fading out music during the ceremony, telling the bridal parties when to enter, bartending during our reception, and so much more! She did a fantastic job while working under pressure and in a time crunch. We cannot thank her enough for her hard work and determination and making our wedding day perfect. The owner, Brandon, and his lovely wife, Nicole, also came out to help which made the day run so much smoother since there was a short amount of time to flip the event space. Connor and Johnny helped tremendously as well and Hayley did a great job bartending during our cocktail hour. Everyone helping on the day of was so willing, caring, and so kind. We are endlessly thankful to the entire ORD team that played a hand in making our day amazing! We would absolutely do it all over again and hope to have other events in the future at Olde Raleigh Distillery!
Wanted to thank Kristy for a great tour as we “was” looking for a wedding venue. She was very helpful with all the information and questions we had. Also, we learned a lot about the business history which meant a lot to me and was one of the major selling point for me (I Love Bourbon). We will definitely be booking our wedding here. Lastly everyone needs to try their small batch bourbons, some of the best I have tasted. Brandon McCraney Keep doing what you do. I had to buy a bottle to take home. And I think it was the last of Bach 11
Great distillery and bourbon bar in Zebulon. They make the best Smoked Old Fashioned. Excellent customer service
Kristy was amazing! We came in a little before 10 and she stayed open for us! My Mistletoe Kiss and my husband's Dirty Peppermint Martini were INCREDIBLE!! We'll definitely be back!
They have a great event space separate from the bar area. The staff is always friendly & engaging. They have book of cocktails, very seasonal & unique.
