We stopped here while we were in town shopping with a friend. There was a great deal for tastings and Mariah’s energy made was really enjoyable. She recommended the cherry vodka lemonade slush cocktail and it was so good we ended up buying the cherry vodka so we can make it at home. Mariah also knew the taste of the distillery selection very well. Mariah even set up both my husband and in-laws with bottles of their favorite red wine to take home. There’s room to grow in this location too. We hope to see an actual tasting room or at least bar stools for seating for multiple people in the future.

This is a really cool place. You can try samples for $1, or get three samples and a little glass for $5. My husband was a big fan of the Peninsula gin. It seems pretty reasonably priced for how good it is. Nice atmosphere, and the guys who work here are great, very knowledgeable.

Michael B was awesome and went above and beyond to facilitate our tasting experience. He was very knowledgeable about the spirits we tried! My favorite was the chipotle vodka which was amazing in a Bloody Mary. Would definitely visit again! My only complaint was the menu had “seasonal” listed with no specific season dates listed and one seasonal spirit on one menu was in stock and the other seasonal wasn’t.

Super friendly staff....enjoyed chatting with them. The wine and spirit selection was very nice. We found a couple of gift items for family members. I would recommend stopping in and checking this place out if you are in Frankenmuth.
