Grain to Glass: The Production Tour
The guide leads you through the distillery’s core production spaces—the Still House, Bottling Room and Barrel House—explaining the single‑barrel program and what separates cask‑strength, single‑barrel whiskey from blended releases.
Hand‑Bottling Ritual
The tour culminates in a hands‑on bottling sequence: you fill a 750 mL bottle from a hand bottling barrel, apply a label and finish with a wax dip to create a one‑of‑a‑kind souvenir.
A Barrel‑Straight Pour
Before you bottle, you’ll receive a pour of unfiltered, undiluted whiskey drawn directly from the hand bottling barrel—an immediate, raw snapshot of that barrel’s character.
