About High Wire Distilling

High Wire Distilling is a popular spot for tours and drinks, known for its friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere. The tours, led by passionate guides, offer insight into the distilling process and local history. Visitors praise the hospitality, with attentive and patient service from knowledgeable bartenders like Mike and Katie. While bourbon is a specialty, many guests are drawn to the Jimmy Red corn variety, which is described as very sippable and enjoyable. The distillery also produces the Abruzzi Rye whiskey, appreciated for its sophisticated and complex flavor, and the Single Barrel Cask, noted for being nice and spicy. Their Hat Trick Botanical Gin is also well-liked. Guests recommend trying the distillery’s spirits straight, rather than in artificial cocktails, and many leave with bottles after the tour. The place is perfect for bourbon enthusiasts, newcomers, and group gatherings, offering a quiet, enjoyable experience. The location is recognized for making good spirits meant to be enjoyed and explored, and visitors can also enjoy snacks like fries “southern style” with pimento cheese and aioli mayo. With good parking and a relaxed vibe, High Wire Distilling is a great local spot to hang out.
