Stopped in here for a few drinks on a long weekend in the TC area and we were definitely impressed. The bartender was super friendly and you could tell he absolutely loved his job. We got an espresso martini and a cherry mule and they were both spot on. We snagged a few bottles of vodka on our way out and are really excited to enjoy those at home. Will definitely be back!

My husband and I went for the first time on Sunday! Loved every minute, from walking in, to sampling and having a drink and buying our favorite bottles. We will definitely be back!?

The gin alone is worth the drive. They have so many unique flavors and it's consistently really good. High quality and well-conceived. If you love Bloody Mary's, you'll love the horseradish vodka!

I was introduced to your establishment by my son and love your products! Your Jack Pine Gin transports me to the North Country with every sip! I recently invited two ladies from Philadelphia to visit Leelanau where their Great Great Grandparents homesteaded near Empire. They took home more than just memories after visiting NLD!

What a treasure for sampling such a variety liquors. The pina colada and coffee liquor were sensational!! Gotta love a horseradish vodka bloody Mary too. Had a "rum old fashion" if you will. Yummy!!!Service and prices are better than expected!!! Don't pass the opportunity to visit this piece of heaven

We came here for my cousins bachelorette party a couple months ago, this stop was actually not in our plans for the day but our lovely wine tour bus driver Fred insisted that we stopped here and thank god he did! The staff is phenomenal and the tasting is such an experience! I find when you walk into some local bars or distillery’s the locals sort of give you some looks as a tourist but this was not the case at all! Truly felt so homey and welcoming, we all had the best time!I’m from Canada and I love Caesar’s (similar to bloody Mary’s but more salty) So I ordered the Bloody Mary and expected the taste of a Bloody Mary but oh my gosh was I wrong! I think that was the best Bloody Mary I have ever had in my life! Everything about it is so unique and the price is not even bad for what I got!! Of course I got the meat straw as well to get the full experience and I was so pleased.Only bad thing is that I live nearly 5 hours away from this place and can’t get this more often :( I made the mistake of not buying a bottle of the horseradish vodka! Hopefully another trip is in the near future so I can start making these at home!!!

We’ve been up many times to the distillery and really enjoy their gin. Making our version of the Bees Knees cocktail Tim introduced us to. Thanks! We will definitely be making more of these. ?

Came in twice with friends. Pour for tasting depends on the server. Best part was cocktails and dog friendly.

I went in there for the first time this past week, even though I am right down the street and my neighbor and friend, has worked there for years - first she brought in her famous macadamia nut cookies, now flowers! I didn't do any of the tastings, though I see how popular it is (always busy); however, I went into the shop attached to the tasting room. How smart of these owners to create this complimentary shop! Anything you think you need to pair with your purchase, they have it - and it's perfect! I purchased items for a wedding present, a hilarious sticker, and a bottle of the Deer Camp Bourbon Whiskey for homemade preserves. Great place!

MUST VISIT! The liquor tasting was a total blast with absolutely fantastic staff. Loved everything, but the gin and fudge liqueur were stars.
