Although you could declare this as a shop, the staff gives you tons of information how their produce is made AND you can experience it by yourself. The classic smell of a wood burning distillery, the ambience in this 100+ year old building, the old distillery itself, the fine bottles which are displayed, the recipes you can grab and try at home.... we really enjoyed our stay and we tried some of the "good stuff". And yes: It is good! Recommended for interested persons - and you can definitely learn something about the distillery. Try the maple rum and the maple cream rum. You won't be disappointed.

Had an excellent tasting here with Meg. She and the staff is all really sweet and knowledgeable - really easy to talk to! It was our first time in beautiful Lunenburg and the distillery was as charming and historical as the rest of the town. What I really liked about the distillery was all the framed photos and prints of Lunenburg and the tallships, really illustrating its history in town! We made out of there with a few bottles and definitely will come back again! Thank you for such a wonderful day Meg and team!

We came here on a Sights and Spirits tour, the new 3-in-1 tour in the Lunenburg Walking Tours. I’m not much of a spirits drinker, but the Distillery tour was a lot of fun! Not only do you learn about the distillery industry/production, but you also learn about the history of the building which is SO cool! The tour guide, Meg, gave us very reasonable samples of all kinds of rum, liquor, and gin. My favourite was the vodka and the maple rum cream!

At a cute-small-unique town as Lunenburg, visiting the local distillery is just... magic. Many tourists, as myself, get fascinated by stories and this distillery has plenty. They have great selection of spirits and rum. For me, that was born in one of the most famous rum producers in the Caribbean, tasting the quality of their rum is just a high-end experience. Don't miss to come here when you are visiting Lunenburg, you'll love it!!!

Great historical venue, amazing products and huge range. Meg looked after us very well, telling awesome stories about how each of the products came to be. Definitely worth a visit! We visited in Feb during Winter and needed the warm up, but that also meant no wait. I will presume that it is very busy in the summer though. Thanks team, I'll be back and will be ordering from you to replenish my supply!

Loved this place. Bought a bunch of gin and vodka to take home. People were friendly, chatty and gave us a lot of information about the distillery that endeared us so much to make several purchases. Apparently, all the ingredients are entirely local. And they have these sophisticated distilling devices custom made in Germany. And, I think the building (historically) used to be a blacksmith.
