What an amazing place to stop off and have a delicious beverage and maybe purchase some fine spirits to take home with you. The owner and head distiller Allen is an absolute pleasure. It was clearly evident that he is incredibly passionate and educated about the ways of spirits. He opened my eyes to many things I previously did not understand about American single malt whiskey.
And speaking about the whiskey, I sampled the Bear Skull Creek and the Shield River Single Malt and they were so good, I had to buy a bottle of each.
