I drove by this place a couple years ago and have regretted not stopping ever since. This time it…read morewas a planned stop, even though it meant leaving my first time on Whiskey Row before 11:00 AM to get here. I had seen the had some higher priced bottles (maybe someday) but i was sure I would find something i liked. I was also sure it would be one of there bourbons . . . . but I ended up leaving with 3 different corn whiskies. One made from red corn, one from blue corn, and a red, white, and blue corn whiskey (250th anniversary of the USA remember). I showed up around 4:00 PM and hadn't signed up for a tour but they were happy to give me a quick tour as well as walk me through every single whiskey. I had a sample flight and ended up taking hme one or two more than planned. Oh, and the guy actually makes wood hats too. You can try them on too. The one i tried on was a little small for me, so no laughing at the picture . . . . okay?

Stopped for a tour and tasting on our way to Hermann. My husband called ahead and booked a tour. We…read morewere welcomed upon arrival and the guide took us through some general information. Then, she took us back to where they make their products. They were in the process of distilling the day we visited, so it was fun to see everything in action. We also got to meet and chat with the owner - such a great experience. That guy has lived a LIFE. I'm not a huge whiskey fan, but my husband has liked everything he's had from Wood Hat. Definitely stop by if driving on 1-70!

The owners Don and Jeanne were so hospitable and kind. The tour was by far the best distillery tour I have been on so far (and I've completed the bourbon trail in Kentucky). You can tell Don has a passion for distilling! If you're in Hermann you have to check this place out. Even if you aren't a bourbon drinker, just go for the ambiance, it's so worth it! Oh, and if you do get a bottle of bourbon be sure to pick up a bar of orange milk chocolate and cherry dark chocolate (made for Copper Mule by Ricky's chocolate shop in Hermann) to pair with your bourbon...the sell them at the distillery. I promise it will be a game changer!

We wanted to sit outside but the staff warned us it was "grimy out there."

Food menu is limited, especially for vegetarians, but decently executed. Rustic bruschetta was a highlight.

We were the only ones in there so service was outstanding. The lady helping us is very knowledgeable about the winery and the local area, provided quite a bit of interesting information.
