Whiskey Del Bak is a delight to visit! We visited for my birthday, and the owner made the whole experience special. We got to try 5 different flavors, all of which were exceptional in their own unique way. The Old Pueblo was sweet, and flavorful. It was unlike any new make spirit that I've ever had. And I'm a whiskey enthusiast. This new make spirit had a lot of similarities to tequila. I could see myself making great tasting drinks with it. My favorites were the Dorado and the Summer 2022 selection. The Darado in my opinion it had notes of caramel, cinnamon, vanilla, campfire, and barbecue smoke. I feel like I could pare this with a nice Steak, or smoked barbecue. The Summer 2022, to me, had notes of maple, brown sugar, hickory smoke, vanilla, caramel, tobacco, and chocolate. I would pare this with bacon, pancakes, and eggs. Or a nice dessert. The Normandy to me had heavy black pepper notes, and was very fruit forward. The Classic was similar to that of a speyside scotch with bourbon qualities, in my opinion. I can say all around, that all expressions shared the same herbal, fruity, and sweet characteristics similar to that of scotch, but has the candied flavor of bourbon, with the Dorado and Summer 2022 offering added notes of meat, smoke, and candied fruit. All bottles would be great on their own, with the Dorado and Old Pueblo shining in a cocktail. Adding a bottle/multiple bottles to my personal bar, has added a little taste of Arizona to my collection. This distillery shines bright amongst other whiskey, by pushing the envelope in what American distilleries can make, and what American Whiskey can be. It's a genuine treat, 100% worth trying.

An absolutely outstanding distillery visit and extraordinarily sin. A SVgle malt whiskey experience. Several weeks ago my brother found a bottle of Del Bac Dorada single malt wheskey distilled in Tucson Arizona at our local Cosco store. We were very impressed by the Mesquite smoked whiskey produced just miles from our home in the south-east Arizona desert. We made an online reservation for tour of the distillery on Friday e evening. We were greater outside the entrance by our hostess/tour guide Janene with a cocktail while I had a quick smoke. O d inside We began very comprehensive tour of the distillery with every step of the production cycle fully described with numerous process videos. We even had the opportunity to tast the barley before a d after smoking with the unique Sonoran desert wood, as well as tasting the "beer" before the first distinction. Following the tour we had a tasting of Del Bac's three rditions: Classic, a non-smoked single malt, Dorado, and Diablo, a white lightning. The experience lasted nearly an hour and 45 minutes. While have visited many distilleries in Scotlanx, I have never had such a complete and comprehensive tour before. Del Bac began production in 2011, and is only now reaching full marketing. Expect special finishings in the near future. Tours are by online reservation only and you will need a navigation app to find the distillery in the back of a industrial park. PS: the very friendly distillery cat helped conduct the tour and tried to join the tastings. Please advise in advance if you are allergic to cats

Brought our group of bartenders for the United States bartenders guild for a tour. The owner medicine and give us the history and then we had a full tour of the facility along with a tasting of three different expressions of Whiskey Del Bac. I was surprised that the taste and quality of the clear whiskey I thought that would be a perfect mixer and cocktails. The staff in distiller assistance were great and knowledgeable during the tour highly recommend stop in and buy a bottle or three

This place is so awesome! The whiskey is recognized globally and my friend and I went for a very cool prohibition themed event. The event coordinator said that they were going to hopefully be doing monthly events where similar education and theming would happen. The whiskey is so delicious and aged perfectly.

Locally owned and made whiskey. Even before all of the recognition and awards it was a must stop for any whiskey aficionado. The Dorado is smoked with mesquite and brings a unique character that is unmatched
