Henebery Spirits — Attraction in Vista

This review is based on only tasting tour at Henebery spirits. Tina and Linsey received us and they were very warm and friendly.

Looks like the regular to guide was not available, So Linsey gave us the tour. She was not the regular guide so she was not fully aware of the distillery process but she gave us the history information. Even though she was not knowledgeable of the entire process of distillation she was honest and gave us as much as information as she could.

Henebery spirits Is not easy to find, it is hidden in an industrial area behind the buildings. On tasting we tried Rye whiskey, this was my favorite. It was very smooth and dry. One of the best rye I ever had. This is best had it neat.

2nd round was on stronger rye, it was too strong for me.

3rd was Carolina reaper pepper, it was very spicy. The after taste was very strong, may be good for some cocktails, not as neat.

Apart from tasting, this place makes great cocktails, wow. We tried Manhattan and Old fashioned, great cocktails.

Best Manhattan I ever had.

After the tour, I was very impressed with the great man's history, Henebery. Glad I took this tour.

Hope to take this tour again to learn more about...

It's definitely a dinner party with friends or you have a bold peppery cigar drink. I highly recommend getting a bottle or two. It's also DEFINITELY top 2-3 bourbons in San Diego and probably the best infused one I've had. As far infused bourbons go.. it's definitely my 3rd favorite. I only have two bottles in front and those Leopold Bros BlackBerry and; Peach infused whiskey. Which is saying A LOT!! Honestly surprised the bottle is so cheap too. LOVE that this is a...

I love whiskey, and Henebery makes, by far, the best whiskies and ryes I have ever tasted. Their recent release of "Hooded Assassin", a collaboration with Battlemage Brewing, is unique and just fantastic. Anyone lucky enough to get their hands on the three-bottle set of straight malt whiskey made with the last beers brewed at Iron Fist by Chris Fitzgerald, who is now Henebery's distiller, is in for a real treat. I always have multiple bottles of their "Celebrated Rye Whiskey" on hand even though I live 175 miles away, thanks to Henebery's fast...
