Mastery distiller
Jason S.

A great experience, very knowledgeable, and free tastings. I can't wait to go back and sample more awesome rums.

A must see when in Daytona. What a fabulous tour, sampling, and cocktails. It makes a difference when you are able to interact with an owner who is enthusiastic and passionate about his business. A little something for everyone. The owner even made NA cocktails for our DD, and minors that were accompanying us.

John and I were going on a cruise and it occurred to me that one of the distilleries I have been wanting to go to would be open on the day we return!!! Add to google calendar! Open Wednesdays- Saturdays, and John's days off being Sunday- Monday, this was the perfect opportunity to pop in and try some fabulous rum! Jeremy was our tasting guide, owner, distiller... yeah, he poured our samples while talking to us about the business and how each spirit is made. They make their own vodka here, a rarity- and that's their base spirit. Made with Florida Sugar Cane- the vodka had a surprise vanilla finish! The silver rum was also wonderful on the palette. Then we tried the wine finish rum, port finished rum, beer barrel finished rum (John's favorite of course), their gin- if they weren't out of stock, we would have bought this one. They also made a specialty moonshine for a Jeep event! Located in Holly Hill, this small business will be sure to knock your socks off!!! We bought one of the beautifully displayed gift baskets with 3 bottles of spirits, 2 pint glasses, 2 whiskey glasses, a shot glass and coasters all engraved with their Copper Bottom logo. Plus, I got a shirt and a charcuterie paddle, also engraved with their logo! My vacation ended a little rough, but we made up for it here! Another stamp in our Florida Distillery Tour Passport & a new favorite!!! They are currently adding a huge patio on the side for events! Plus their tasting room has great vibes! I was tempted to buy one of their craft candles too! You can't go wrong supporting this small business!

Perhaps one of our absolute favorite distilleries in all of Florida! We've been getting our Florida Distillery Trail passport stamped along the way and Copper Bottom is one that totally stands above the others, hence the name Copper Bottom! Jeremy and his wife have created unique, smooth, enjoyable spirits in a friendly, open and family vibe space. Even during a Daytona Bike Week Poker Run, Jeremy took the time to share his story, and each spirits story, with us and even a quick run into the distillery for a tour! The vodka though, the smooth rich vodka... you've gotta try the vodka!!

Jeremy is the man!! We made a quick stop for a drink before we head out to lunch and wow we are so thankful we did! This frozen pina colada and strawberry daiquiri, made with their rum they make in-house, are amazing!! It hit the spot on this sunny day!

We were in the area to visit with our relatives. He suggested going here. This wasn't on our radar coming into it. When you pull up, do not judge a book by its cover. That was my first impression as well. We walked in and Jeremy, the owner was very welcoming. He waited for others to join our party and if any others showed up. They provide free tasting and tours. The tour was incredible for myself. I'm a winemaker, and everything he explained was very interesting and stuff that I get into when it comes to fermenting of alchohol. Jeremy, provided an excellent tour on his equipment, barrels, etc; The tasting was amazing, he and his partner discussed about the different vodka and rum that they had available. Provided a sample taste of each of them. Provided options on when drinking it, what and what not to do. He answered any questions that anyone had. His stuff was really good, We purchased a bottle to take home. Overall experience was excellent. One of the cool things is that they have a Facebook counter behind the bar. Anytime you go on Facebook and like the page, the counter changes. That was pretty awesome.

This place was great. We first got a tour of their facility and I learned the difference between distilling vodka, rum, and whiskey. They even have some beer barrels that they age their spirits in. One of the barrels is from Beachfly Brewery, which is a must-go. Next, we had samples of each, a mixed drink, and then bought a few bottles. They were reasonably priced. They make their spirits from sugar cane and no grains. I thought that was pretty cool.

This local distillery makes very nice smooth rum and vodka. I have had it at parties and events around town. During the Covid-19 pandemic they made hand sanitizer and actually gave it out for donations. Thank you for the hand sanitizer.

I will be headed back soon to fill these favorites back up .

This place has been around for 8 years but I swear it's always closed when I walk by. Well today it…read morewasn't!!! 2:30 on a Thursday, they were open. We headed in to see what they're about. They had quite a lineup for tasting. And the samples are free! I enjoyed their orange blossom sweet tea vodka. The orange blossom makes it a little different than the usual sweet tea vodkas. On the menu, they have a John Daly cocktail. As a golfer and a fan of golf, I was destined to enjoy this cocktail. And their prices! Talk about a bargain! My drink was only $7.99. We had a few more samples and then I spied their seasonal frozen drink. It's a spiked "hot" cocoa! That frozen drink was so good. You could not detect the vodka in it but I'm sure it would kick in. I just had a sip of my husband's. So good. The store is super cute. They were busy decorating the place with Christmas stuff- even though Christmas is literally around the corner! Haha. A bit late but much appreciated. They have quite a bit of merchandise. Some is loggerhead and some is just cute gift type- for example- their tea towels are funny! I grabbed two for Christmas gifts. They have shirts, coffee mugs and tons of bar glassware. You can even buy bottles of their spirits. The place is a bit small. There's a Large table that seats about ten people and then standing room. You can see right into their distillery from the windows. Their spirits are offered at a few local restaurants, including The district, which is next door. Parking is along the street. The little lot across from them is gone- it's undergoing construction to be some retail building. Definitely stop by when you're in the area. Have a free taste, get a cocktail and pick up some gifts. Support local!

FYI the rum is Keto Friendly, which I have never seen before. I got a Rosey the blonde cocktail which was very good. I will definitely be back to buy a bottle of rum!

I had a blast here several months ago with some family members. We decided go do a tasting and had…read moreso much fun. I can't recall the name of the young lady we had unfortunately, but she was fantastic and so much fun. My family ended up buying a few bottles to take home with them. It was a nice local place to stop by and support. It had a really good vibe when you walked in. It looked like your typical local distillery room when you come on with the barrels. I don't go to St Augustine very often but if you love to get a taste of local spirits when you are visiting places I highly recommend this place.

Always a great experience! We visited two days on a row and had Lexi take us through the spirit…read moretasting both times. What a fantastic employee! Each time we've visited we have had wonderful experiences. Everyone is always a joy to interact with. Lexi had a large group during our first visit and then just the two of us the second time. Both times we walked out with our favorite spirits and some new ones. The peanut butter whiskey is always a staple and this one is my favorite. We now have a new addition to our must-have collection, mango datil whiskey. I dont even mix these with anything as they are incredibly smooth. Can you? Sure. But why? The spirits also change out and I'm a little sad that the cookie dough whiskey will become seasonal (that one did mix well with the peanut butter and caramel). But the new key lime pie rum was delicious and the coconut rum is another favorite. Was there anything we didn't like? I am not a fan of the roasted pecan whiskey but I can appreciate why others will enjoy it. In our tasting, Lexi swapped that one out for me so I didn't miss out. The care and joy the team has is palpable and a must stop when visiting the St Augustine area. Big fan and we now stop by multiple times each visit to sample and take home our favorites. Im excited to try the new rye whiskey on a future visit. One thing to keep in mind is that the tasting used to be free and now costs $5. Personally, I don't mind since there is a $5 coupon to use in the store that can be stacked so it becomes essentially free but it's a relatively recent change (the same applies to the nearby St Augustine Distillery and San Sebastian Winery). Do I wish that this one was still free? Of course. Will it stop me from visiting? Nope. It just breaks up my purchases so I can apply the cost each time. (And it's much better than the winery which gives you a plastic cup...nice but not really repeatable.) Overall, City Gate continues to be my favorite Distillery for flavored spirits. Thanks for always providing a great experience and product! And thank you to Lexi for being awesome!

We walked in around 12 o'clock on a Wednesday afternoon and was able to sit at the bar with no challenges. Bar area is open seeing if you want a table you do have to check in. I started with a handmade Italian soda the ginger one and I love this because the ginger is very pronounced. It's very crisp and light. I also got an order of their soup of the season, which was a red curry. It was absolutely delicious. Had great flavor little spice at the end of it as well. For lunch, we split the fried chicken that comes with collard greens and whole cakes. The collard greens are by far one of the best that we have ever had. They use slab bacon and they're absolutely delicious. We've literally talked about them for years and they were just as good as we remembered. Fried chicken was nice and moist and the hocakes cakes were very sweet. For drinks, I tried one of the seasonal ones which was the witches of Eastwick. The gin based drink definitely was sweet, but exactly what I was looking for. My husband got an old-fashioned because they had black walnut bitters when he was really excited about.

Is 5 Stars the highest I can rate them? This was hands down one of the best meals I have enjoyed in…read moresome time. We arrived early and got in fairly quickly. Long waits are common for this spot. The interior is the old Ice Plant so it has great character. Not super large so limited dining spots within. Very high ceilings and though there were plenty of diners, it was overly loud. Great spot to enjoy the company you are with! Our server was top notch, knowledgeable, helpful, friendly but not trying to monopolize our table talk. We started with Cocktails which were all great. I went classic Old Fashioned, presentation AND taste were on point. We split the Crab Beignets order of 4. The breading on them was light and fluffy, the Crab tasty and they were cooked appropriately, no burns or underdone spots. For our main course, we elected to split 2 of the specials of the day so they may not be there when you go, but judging by the quality of the specials, any dish would be great. We had the Caesar Salad (which is like calling the Queen Mary2 a "boat"!). It is next level, 7 minute eggs, homemade croutons, Anchovie forward, all good! We also split an order of Shrimp Cake Sliders. These were huge, and the slaw that accompanied was the perfect match to the shrimp without overwhelming them. For dessert we settled on the Pineapple cake which also had coconut and all kinds of wonderful flavors going on! A really outstanding meal from beginning to end!
