We love Smooth Ambler spirits and try to stop by whenever we are nearby. We've tasted several times with Pat and consistently have a good and fun experience.

While driving through Southern West Virginia over the Easter holiday, my wife and I discovered a Bourbon distillery just outside of Lewisburg, WV. Not knowing much about Bourbon, as I primarily sip a dram or two of Scotch and Irish whiskey, we decided to stop in to take advantage of the tour and tasting that Smooth Ambler offered. It was fantastic! The tour guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable as he gave me a tour of their facility, and even allowed me to taste the yeast during fermentation! He also was extremely kind enough to answer all of my questions about the distillation process.

But, my favorite part was the tasting. My wife and I tried four or five different varieties of Smooth Ambler’s bourbon! They were all excellent, with the common denominator, being a nice spicy cinnamon flavor, with hints of caramel and vanilla. Maintaining some restraint, I was able to walk away with only one bottle of Old Scout! The Gift shop was also nice in that I really liked the glassware that was available for purchase.

But, most of all, we really enjoyed the staff at Smooth Ambler during our tasting! They were so relaxed and funny, that my wife immediately made a connection with them, and the next thing we knew - two hours of conversation had passed! It was awesome.

If you are meandering through the Lewisburg area, I highly recommend you stop by and see this little gem of a distillery!

We had a private tour with our jeep club friends! Beautiful facilities! Learned so much about the way the wood of the barrel affects the taste of the finished product. I tasted a little as I am not much of a drinker. I think it’s a great place to learn and taste. Super welcoming warm and friendly! We appreciate the opportunity to come and visit! I can’t wait to go back and buy my empty bourbon barrel!!!!

We had our eye on this distillery for a while and finally got to visit it during our last weekend trip in WV. It was SO worth the wait. The bourbon, whiskey, and rye that they offer are extremely high quality, flavorful, and smooth. However, the people at Smooth Ambler are among the most kind and welcoming that we have encountered. They were genuinely friendly, engaged, and made great conversation throughout our tasting experience. We felt a true WV hospitality filled with laughs from Pat and his colleagues. Even if the spirits weren't as good we would want to come back just for the experience, but the spirits were goooood. Definitely want to come back. Highly highly recommend!

Loved that this distillery specializes in bourbons and rye whiskies!! While the don’t distill all of their spirits, they do age and blend them. The bottle prices are very reasonable for a small distillery too. Shoutout to our bartender Ashley who gave us a great time. Can’t beat free tastings!!!

Ashley ran an excellent tour for us, it was great seeing behind the curtain. We love Smooth Ambler.

We stopped by the Visitors center in Lewisburg and they gave us a map and it had this distillery on it so we stopped as it was on our scenic route.

I am so glad we did. We had such a great taste testing with some great education about Bourbon. We really never drank Bourbon before, so learning about it was really exciting.

The staff were so friendly and we really enjoyed the products. I wish they had smaller bottles because we’re not big drinkers, so a big bottle would go to waste. So while we did not buy Bourbon today, we did get a tee shirt to proudly wear back home in NC.

We’ll stop by again if we’re back in this area. Thanks for the amazing time ?
