Visit the St. Augustine Distillery for a Tasting

The St. Augustine Distillery is located in the converted Ice Plant building, which dates back to 1927, and much of the architectural details have been preserved. Established in 2013, the distillery was founded by 20 local families, who all had a love for fine spirits and sustainability. They consider themselves a “farm-to-bottle” operation, using grains only from local farmers and supporting local agriculture in the area.

On a visit to St. Augustine Distillery, you’ll be able to enjoy a self-guided tour, including an up-close look at the distillery operation, learn about bourbon and the barrelling process, and even a “fill your own bottle” experience. Most importantly, you’ll taste four of the St. Augustine Distillery’s signature cocktails, crafted by one of their talented bartenders. Be sure to pop into the gift shop and get a bottle or two for your home bar. Tours happen daily from 10:30 to 5:30 pm.
