We came in for the tour on a Sunday and it turned out to be a private tour with Amanda. The tour…read morewas more of a conversation and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Amanda's energy and passion was outstanding. The tour was about 45 minutes and includes a tasting flight. Since I do not drink bourbon, they allowed my to substitute a drink. There were so many options that I was interested in trying, but after discussing what I like with Amanda, she suggested the Lavender Haze. The lavender syrup is made in house and was sweet, with a floral taste . The drink was excellent. They have open mic nights and live music. They are expanding into the adjacent space in the next few months. It was interesting to hear all of the logistics involved in moving equipment into the new space. We will be back !

Unfortunately they do not offer food options but you can bring your own. They make their own Bourbon,Gin ,Vodka and Rum which pairs well with their huge selection of crafted cocktails. The prices for the cocktails are slightly more than one would expect but then again you are not paying any cover charge to hear live music and frankly,they are sooo delicious. We tried the Blood Orange Mai Tai which was a daily special,Banana Rum Old Fashion and a Classic Old Fashion. Can't pick a favorite because they were all our favorites! Tastings and Tours are available. Support local business and check out Copper Fiddle Distillery.

I have been wanting to try this distillery ever since I saw a segment on them on one of the local…read moreTV stations. We stopped in on a Saturday afternoon around lunch time. They have a few parking spaces in the front of the building with a larger lot in the rear. It was not too crowded and we were seated immediately. Our server Michaela was very friendly and suggested a few food items for my wife which were GF. I started with the House Old Fashion and my wife had the Bee's Knees. Both were very good and cost 10.00 each. For lunch I tried their Pecan Whiskey BBQ wings. 5 wings cost 10.00. They were good size and very tasty but I didn't taste any of the Pecan Whiskey flavor. My wife had the Barbacoa Tacos which were filled with braised beef. She could only eat 2 of them so I had the third taco. Flavorful but I would have preferred more salsa or a dipping sauce. I wanted to try their Drop Dead Bourbon separately so I had a small tasting. I loved it so much I bought a bottle to bring home. Cost was 60.00. The history of this distillery dates back to 1857 and is one of Illinois' oldest standing distillerys and was once Al Capones largest bootlegging facility during prohibition. I would love to go back and try a few more of their hand crafted cocktails and one of their signature burgers.

We also got a quick tour from Mitch, who was incredibly knowledgeable and kept things fun with plenty of dad jokes. The tour included a tasting, but I was doing Dry January, so I didn't participate and it still felt like a great experience. Mitch did an awesome job explaining everything, including the ABCs of bourbon: American made, aged in a Barrel, and at least 51% Corn, in a way that was easy to follow even if you're not drinking. Between the tour, the class, and the overall vibe, it was a unique and enjoyable outing. I'd definitely go back for another event or class (and maybe a tasting next time!).

I went here with family to take a free tour during the Open House Chicago weekend. The tour briefly described that they are a woman-owned business, their brewing process, and ended with a tasting. The two drinks I tried were the whiskey and cranberry gin.

Some street parking available out front and on adjacent streets or fairly close to the Highwood train station. The space is quaint, but well decorated with loosely art deco, higher end finishes!

Our bartender was very friendly and responsive to our requests! We both ordered the Smoked Old Fashioned, which came in an elaborate and entertaining display!
