A unique and tasty selection of spirits that doesn't include whiskey, beer or wine. A quaint little setting for tasting right on the Sonoma square.

Stopped in today in an attempt to source some ingredients for my featured wedding cocktail and was excited to try their FLOWERS gin with Rose & Lavender notes. Bill was incredibly friendly and helpful, and when I told him my fiancé is Italian/french, he showed me their amazing Lemoncello (love the fun design of the label too) I will definitely be adding that as a menu item! Thanks for all your help!

We came in on a rainy Sunday afternoon and enjoyed talking to Bill about their spirits. He also gave us plenty of restaurant suggestions to walk or drive to. We ended up splitting a flight of 6 tasters after our lunch. We purchased a bottle of Pomegranate syrup and rhubarb ginger gin. Quite reasonable pricing, cozy seating with easy street parking. Thanks, Bill!

The service here is welcoming and great. I'm not even a wine or whiskey drinker and I enjoyed the flight experience. We'll definitely make this a go to spot when we return. We picked up a bottle and are excited to share it when people come over. Thank you to the two guys working amongst the disco balls! I should have known it was going to be spectacularly magical!

Sip N' Smile Alright, let's dial it back a bit. Prohibition Spirits Distillery in Sonoma is a gem hiding in an alley. We swung by on a laid-back Monday night, practically owning the place. The bartender, who pegged us as non-locals, was a real stand-up guy. He laid out the tasting options, and we landed on this brandy - could've been the XO or VSOP, but it was basically scotch's cousin. Cool thing, is their spirits are derived from grapes! Now, our group was split - some diving into the sweet and tart limoncello flight, while I chased the whiskey and brandies. Went for hazelnut, not bad. In hindsight, splurging on the pricier stuff in the six-flight might've been the move - same cost, better quality. Overall, it was a good, easygoing time. The bartender was a champ, making the whole experience top-notch. If you're watching your wallet, mix in some of the high rollers in your flight. Or just cut to the chase, grab a bottle based on their suggestions. Our Napa Sonoma tour with friends got the stamp of approval, so here's to Prohibition Spirits Distillery! Cheers!

My husband and I, and a friend, went here twice on a Sonoma trip, in part because it opened at 10am and we weren't sure what else to do. Husband and I ended up joining their club because, on both days, we had great service. Denise helped us on the first visit, and a very nice man, whose name I can't remember now, helped us the second time. If you like brandy, gin, or vodka, definitely check them out. The store is very cozy with a relaxed atmosphere . They offer six half-ounce tastes for $25, and in addition to being nice, their staff are knowledgeable about the products and will also provide cocktail ideas. I hope this place stays where it is for a long time!

Stumbled upon this store while strolling in downtown Sonoma one night, and glad I found it! It's a cute little store with a lounge-like atmosphere. If you are looking for a break from wine, they have quite the selection of spirits to taste and buy. And the service is amazing, our "bartender" educated us well about their selection and gave us great suggestions for our pours. We weren't planning on it, but ended up leaving with a couple bottles to make cocktails at home!

Wine tasting isn't the only thing you'll want to do in Sonoma. It is also quite interesting to taste the distillery here, which makes brandy, apple brandy, gin, and light liquor distilled from wine and aged.
You can try 6 different tastings for $25.

Our group of 5 friends made a stop here for a tasting. We had a blast! We had a great time each picking out our 6 drinks for the tasting. Our server, George, was very friendly and informative.

We visited on a Tuesday to pick up our club delivery. We also did a complementary tasting. Bill was the sommelier. He offered a lot of great suggestions. The shop was clean and very calm during our visit. Great place to taste spirits.
