Fabulous distillery for with delicious libations to sample and take home. The Saturday tour is informative and fun, due to this friendly and knowledgeable couple who love what they do.

We read the reviews online so decided to give it a try, and we were very glad we did. The owner made the experience great! He was very knowledgeable and we actually learned a lot. He also comes up with very interesting drinks rather than just tasting spirits alone. I highly recommend this experience, and the award winning spirits!

The hosts were very jovial and friendly. They had a good selection of alcohol and the owners are not afraid to experiment with cocktails. Truly had a wonderful time and definitely looking forward to visit next year when they introduce their new line.

I can’t believe that being around 5 years, I had no idea this place existed. I had a wonderful experience during the tasting and tour. Bridget and Robin were funny and super knowledgeable about their business. They answered all the questions me, my husband and friends asked. I love that they are super hands on with their business, making the alcoholic beverages offered seem so much more personalized. This great couple invests their time in making delicious beverages and hand sanitizers - all of which I tried and were great. If you have not visited Fifth State Distillery yet, I highly recommend that you do. You will not leave empty handed. There is a drink for everyone, even wine drinkers haha!

We saw very positive things about this place prior to going. Don't be intimidated by the unassuming entrance. Inside is where it's at. The couple who run the place are wonderful and personable and very funny. Learned more about distilling spirits here more than any other distillery I've been to before. And the products are great. We absolutely will be returning for more!
