This was a fun local find! On my last day in town, I wasn't leaving until the evening, so I decided…read moreto spend some time by dropping here. I decided to do a flight, and it included a lot, sheesh! While they mostly do bourbons and ryes with a new seasonal flavor every now and then, they also have a gin and vodka. When you do the tasting, the latter two come first. Everyone has a different palate, but I definitely enjoyed the vodka and gin. Some of the whiskeys were smoother than others, but some definitely stood out. There was one with a strong Caribbean rum taste to it that was delicious, for example. Otherwise, it's a really cool place to hang out and they have a patio. I was there pretty early, and was told they would start doing cocktails later. I decided to just come back for a round, and who can say no to a cocktail with pear in it?? Such an underutilized ingredient. I wish I could have taken bottles home, but I wasn't checking in a bag. I can definitely drive back, and I plan to!

If you've never been, the tasting is a fantastic experience.

The cocktails are creative, refreshing, and perfectly crafted, making every visit feel unique. Bill and Andrew truly know what they're doing. Their knowledge, passion, and genuine enthusiasm for craft spirits make the experience even better. Whether you're stopping in for a tasting, enjoying cocktails with friends, or picking up a bottle to take home, you'll leave impressed a great addition to Downtown Greensboro South End Area.

The apple flavor whiskey was not good. Too syrupy and the peach flavor is insanely sweet; may be good in a mixed drink. The sweet potato was good. I could sip that easily.

From blackberry, to peach, to honey.... they are all crafted magnificently. For our visit, we settled on whiskey + coffee. I love how she asked what level of sweetness we preferred and then brought out our favorite creamer to add in the coffee. The coffee + cream + whipped topping was perfect to sit outside on a Fall evening and sip. After packaging our to go bottles, we asked a few more questions to the distiller himself and he shared that they make about 2 batches a month,sometimes 3. Even though it wasn't a tour, his sharing helped us understand the process and how lucky we were to find this gem. Even if you don't drink whiskey, go and enjoy the scenery. Order some snacks and play a few board games. Excellent for date night, Friday cheers or just because.

My first visit to Pittsboro and I probably would never have stumbled across The Plant and Fair Game…read moreBeverage Company because they're a bit of a ways from the center of town. But they're a member of an RV hospitality program and I decided that this would be way more interesting than a Cracker Barrel parking lot for an overnight. And it is. Fair Game distills their own spirits, they have a great selection of beers and they are masters of the charcuterie game. The tasting room is a pleasant little spot with wifi and power which was great for me on my own. But it's a comfy spot if you're meeting up with friends, with tables inside and out. Plus you have access to the other places in The Plant including a Mexican place across the way that looks tremendous. I stayed in Fair Game, enjoying a local draft beer and then the lovely bartender Desiree mixed a Fair Game Collins for me. A delicious combination of their house-made gin, which she customized for me with less simple syrup so that I could try to stay somewhere close to ketosis. It was a very pleasant evening for sure.

Five stars for Liberty & Plenty, a true gem that we didn't even plan on visiting. We were headed…read moredown the street to somewhere else, saw the sign, looked at each other and said, "Let's check this out" and I am so glad we followed that impulse because it turned into one of those stops that completely makes your afternoon. What was supposed to be a quick pop in turned into two full hours of socializing, tasting, talking and working our way through a lineup of spirits that dhows just how much care and craft is happening inside this place. I need to say, Stephanie is a darling. She's not a bartender. She's a proper mixologist, the kind of professional who knows her spirits, knows her history, knows how to read a customer, and somehow manages to be both entertaining and deeply knowledgeable at the same time. She walked us through their menu with the kind of confidence that makes you trust every recommendation, and every drink she made had that extra flourish that tells you she actually loves the work. It's rare to find someone who can make you laugh, teach you something, and hand you a drink that's better than what you expected all in the same moment, but she does it effortlessly. Somewhere between the rum and the vodka, we learned that they're gearing up for a big move to Wilson, expanding from two stills to a dozen, which is wild and honestly well deserved because the quality here is already top-tier and the idea of them scaling up that much is exciting. You can feel the ambition from the crew here, the sense that they're on the cusp of something bigger, and it made every sip feel like you're getting in on a story that's about to blow up. That said, I'm begging. Please, please, please, find a way to keep a tasting room in Durham. You're awesome, the vibe is awesome, the people are awesome, and this city needs places like this where you can wander in on a whim and end up staying for two hours because everything feels and tastes just right. Expansion is great, growth is great, Wilson is lucky to have you, but Durham will really miss you if you disappeared completely. Liberty & Plenty is the kind of spot you stumble into once and then start recommending to everyone you know. If you're anywhere nearby, go. And if Stephanie is behind the bar, settle in, because you're in very good hands. [Review 1073 of 2026 - 4782 in North Carolina - 26252 overall]

What a lovely surprise to find this gem tucked away in downtown Durham! I had heard great things…read moreabout their espresso martini, so when we finally visited, we had to try it. And, it truly lived up to the hype. One of the best we've ever had! I also tried two other cocktails made with their house-distilled rum and gin, and both were delicious and perfectly balanced. The seasonal menu is creative and reasonably priced, we were genuinely impressed. The ambiance is charming and cozy despite a bit warm inside (the AC was pretty weak), but quiet and tastefully decorated with velvet couches, exposed walls, vintage touches, and fresh flowers on each table. We had fun flipping through their amazing cocktail book collection on the shelf too. The bartenders were very friendly and offered us focaccia from Ninth Street Bakery to pair with our drinks for free, which was such a thoughtful and tasty addition. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and are so happy to see a micro-distillery thriving in the heart of Durham. Can't wait to return for an official tour and to sample more of their spirits!

Tours are $10 and are available each Saturday from 1-5 PM on the half hour. You get two generous pours of both liquors, gin and moonshine, and a short tour of their facility (it is a very small space). On the tour we learned that pine top is an old nickname for moonshine which was interesting. Pinetop shirts are available to purchase and so are home-aging kits (this includes an oak barrel and a bottle of their moonshine which is the perfect gift idea).

In the area with fiddlin fish so it's pretty lively, there's a food truck usually out in the parking lot. Happy to find another cocktail bar in the area!

They had some really unique cocktails- dill pickle margarita and chai biscus. The margarita was pretty good and actually tasted like pickles, but probably wouldn't order it again. The chai-biscus cocktail was really good and not too sweet. This would be a great casual hang out spot to change it up from a brewery and had plenty of seating. All the spirits are made in house and are super high quality. We have bought them before to give as gifts and everyone loved them. They even have a tasting room in the back where you can try and talk to the distiller about their spirits. We will definitely be back!
