Starlight Distillery — Local services in New Albany

We had the best time! Rikki was our tour guide she was phenomenal and very knowledgeable. This is by far one of the coolest disterllery tours we choose the bottle your own experience. We started the tour down a few steps and the first thing that hit me was the smell and if I could put that smell into one word it was History. I loved learning about the history and seeing how it's evolved into something amazing that gets to be shared with others.

We highly recommend Starlight as a fun destination for food, fun, families, as well as wine and...

Visited and toured with a family member I dragged along. The tour guide we had for the bottle your own experience (Rikki, a history major) was stellar. The tour concludes with a per-person choice between a single barrel bourbon or single barrel rye after tasting through several interesting barrels in the finishing and soon-to-be-bottled rickhouse closest to the distillation equipment. These are estate reserve barrels and get packed in the shown containers. In the storefront, we were helped by a larger bearded fellow (Nate? Sorry I can’t remember your name for sure, but I’m sure your employer knows who I mean) that was very helpful and not afraid of throwing samples at me if he thought I’d like them. Probably helps that we had similar tastes. We left around $900 lighter than we came in and aren’t upset...
