Had the absolute best experience here. We started out with a complementary Mojito which was delicious. The tour was very informative and thorough. The tasting portion of the event was amazing as well. Afterwards we were able to sit and fellowship, we even ordered some cocktails from the menu and left with a bottle of the in house made whiskey!! 10/10 would highly recommend. I cannot wait to go back.

Tour and tasting experience was awesome. I loved learning about the history of distilling! The spirits were also very good, especially the rum and pink pepper gin.

We booked a tasting at All Points West for my dad's 60th birthday, and had a great time! Our tour and tasting facilitator was Gil, the founder, and it was clear he knew his stuff. We learned a lot about the distillery and the history of all the alcohol they make, which we then got to taste. You definitely get a good amount of tastings for the price, plus a complimentary cocktail to start, and you can then purchase additional drinks if you'd like. We had a lot of fun! Gil also recommended a few restaurants to go to for dinner afterwards, and we had a delicious dinner just around the corner from the distillery.

I’m so happy that I stumbled upon this distillery while looking for a fun way to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday. We decided to take the tour, and it was an excellent choice! Gil was very informative and shared fascinating insights about the distillation process and the history of the spirits.

The highlight, of course, was enjoying a delicious cocktail after the tour. Overall, we learned a lot and enjoyed amazing drinks that made the night even more special. I highly recommend this experience!

My husband and I attended the distillery tour and tasting as a birthday present/experience. Gil was incredibly informative and personable. His drinks were so well crafted. We received a welcome mojito, which was delicious. It was fun to sip on while we learned about the history of the area and the process of making spirits like whiskey, gin, rye, and rum. The tastings were plentiful and it was a lot of fun socializing with the other attendees.

Very cool event. Gill is super-passionate and a very engaging speaker. The liquors are all very good, and knowing the stories behind them makes the experience that much more enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone with a taste for fine spirits and enjoys a good backstory. It is a 15 minute walk or so from Newark Penn if you are coming by train (but a short and cheap Uber / Lyft ride).

We had a great time and tasted some unique spirits and cocktails at the Saturday tasting.

APW is creating some amazing hybrid whiskeys and their pink pepper gin is one of the most flavorful gins I've ever tasted.

The owner/master distiller Gil's stories about the history of spirit making in this area (which informs his creations) are fascinating and especially enjoyable while sipping our complimentary rum cocktail.

We definitely want to stop by for the more informal Friday happy hour some time soon to try more signature cocktails.

We had a wonderful experience. The owner was very knowledgeable and funny too! We learned a lot and had fun.
PS - The mojito is the best that you will ever taste!

Went there on a Saturday evening for the tour and had an amazing experience! I was welcomed by Gil, the owner, who prepared me a delicious welcome drink, and right after we went for the tour, which was very nice and informative. The tasting was also very good, the spirits were amazing. I also learned that there is live music on certain days and I'm definitely going to return with friends. By the way, I couldn't leave the place without getting one bottle for myself

Great outing at the tasting event. Fun time with the owner and group I was with, and it was actually a pleasant learning experience as well.

I had the pleasure of meeting one of the owners, Kate, recently. I haven’t made it to the distillery yet, but went and got a bottle of the Cathouse Pink Pepper Gin which Kate recommended. It is delicious!!! Kudos to Chambers Street Wines for carrying their products and supporting this local business. Hope to make it to the distillery soon!!

This was my second tour at All Points West and I still really enjoyed it! Very interesting to hear about the process and broader history. Fantastic cocktails, excellent whiskey (and gin and rum!). The owner even gave us a great restaurant recommendation. I would highly recommend you visit APW.
