I can honestly say I couldn't choose a favorite so I would suggest you try a taste of everything available. You'll definitely want to take a bottle to go!! We went very close to closing and were the only ones there, allowing us to discuss the distilling process, as well as any other questions we had on the cordials and rums. The owner is super friendly and takes pride in his newly opened business. I highly recommend that if your in Burrough and looking for a great low key experience that you stop by and check this place out!! Cheers

Thank you so much.

The drive here, no matter where you're coming from will have you grateful for this vibrant season, full of the most beautiful colors. Any New Englander, or their guest is sure to appreciate! This property is just stunning. It is rustic, homey and has the loveliest people working here. The inside is small, they had quite the gathering of moonshiners. They offered us samples of the Cranberry and Apple Pie Moonshine. These are potent and so tasty, just as the names suggest! We sat outside, enjoying the sunshine while sipping on the Moonshines. When a lady came out distributing more. One serving of each was plenty for me. Shortly after I went inside to pay. I was expecting it to be around $30, because there was a sign that each shot glass is $3. Well, it was all on the house, just because it was our first time! Full Moonshine is open on Sunday 12-5. Please stop by and support this small business that makes delicious Moonshine!

Watercure is a locally owned distillery that uses locally harvested ingredients to craft small batches of vodka, rum, whiskey, gin, bourbon, and brandy. Their website lists 20 different spirts, so they get pretty creative in the distillery. Everything is made on site, and when I asked to take a look at the sparkling silver tanks where the magic happens, our host happily obliged. They sell Apple Spice Flavored Rum, Vodka Flavored with Cucumber and Mint, Vodka Flavored with Strawberry and Rhubarb, Corn Vodka, Apple Vodka, Wheat Vodka, Shiitake Mushroom Flavored Vodka, Connecticut Corn Whisky, Barreled Aged- CT Corn Whisky, Connecticut Wheat Bourbon Whisky, Barreled Aged Gin, Gin, Rum, Brandy, McIntosh Apple Brandy, 1686 American Bourbon Whisky, Wolf Den Rye Whisky, 1701 Single Malt Whisky, Connecticut Bourbon Whisky, and Connecticut Barley Bourbon Whisky. Pretty impressive, eh? You can get a flight of four samples, or a mixed drink at their bar while you enjoy the super chill atmosphere in an old barn. We had a $14.99 flight of Cucumber and Mint Flavored Vodka, Apple Vodka, Apple Rum, and Strawberry Rhubarb Vodka (which we loved and was clearly our favored sample). As for my bourbon loving buddy, we picked up a 200 ml bottle of CT Wheat Bourbon ($59.99), and when we mentioned it was destined to be a birthday present, our host lovingly wrapped it in plastic and tied it with a pretty white bow! We had a wonderful experience out here in Pomfret Center, CT, and I bet you will too.

The Connecticut Bourbon was mildly complex with a rich brown sugar and vanilla profile and a deep oak finish. The wheat bourbon was amazingly smooth, and the Corn Whiskey, while not as complex, was solid and flavorful. The corn was my favorite!! My wife had a martini which was spot on and the mushroom vodka was killer!! The tasting room was very welcoming with a warm, wood atmosphere. They offer food, we had cheese and crackers which were priced very reasonably. We will definitely be going back for the amazing spirits and service!

Hartford Flavor Cocktail Parlor - (5/5) For the first part…read moreof our Valentine's Day (and 5-year anniversary) celebration, I took my wife to Hartford Flavor Cocktail Parlor, a woman-owned cocktail lounge in Hartford -- and it was absolutely perfect for her. The space is stunning. Pink and green tones, chandeliers, fairy lights, leather chairs, and individual table lamps at the seating areas create a modern, chic, romantic vibe. It feels intentional and beautifully curated from the moment you walk in. We stopped in for drinks and small bites before dinner. My wife ordered the vanilla chai martini, and she loved it -- smooth, flavorful, and well-balanced. I had a cocktail with a reposado base (I don't currently see it listed on the menu, so I can't recall the exact name), but it was excellent -- smooth, slightly sweet, and very well crafted. For small bites: She ordered the smoked salmon. I had the stuffed sweet potato. The stuffed sweet potato was hearty and easily shareable -- which we did -- and there was still enough for leftovers (which I unfortunately left on the table -- still hurts a little). Service also deserves recognition. Our server seemed a bit young and possibly newer, maybe even a little nervous at first -- but he did a great job. He was attentive, polite, and well-mannered. When we had questions about the tequila used in the cocktail or what type of mushroom was in the stuffed sweet potato, he made sure to get the answers for us. That level of attentiveness definitely stood out. Between the ambiance, the drinks, the food, and the service, this place set the tone perfectly for our evening. My wife already wants to revisit, and that says everything. 5 out of 5. Perfect date-night energy.

You can bring your own food and they have a some smaller plates available. There are a ton of great food options close by. They are also dog friendly. They also have all types of events each month. I'm definitely interested in the table top game nights. They also do trivia nights, live music and food trucks. We are definitely looking forward to coming back soon!

We now can't wait to go back again. Definitely going to be a new weekend spot when we want casual hangouts.
