    Whiskey tasting

    Wendy and Jim were great hosts and very knowledgeable! We enjoyed our tasting and tour and will look forward to being back again!

    I booked a tasting as a surprise for my boyfriend's birthday. Let me say - this experience was AMAZING and exceeded all expectations! Wendy was so easy to work with, accommodating the times I needed for our day. And then to have our tasting be hosted by one of the owners - just WOW! Wendy was incredibly knowledgeable and fun, making the experience so enjoyable. Everything from how the liquors were made to how to sample it and alter the profiles; it was so cool! Would HIGHLY recommend!!!

    The distillery is small but very very powerful!

    A true craft distillery with masters at the helm! We were lucky to arrive at the distillery without reservations and Wendy graciously treated us like we were family! We enjoyed tasting all of the spirits to select our favorites, visiting with Wendy was the sugar on the rim! Agave spirits are my go-to so seeing the unique selection definitely brought a smile to my face! Let me just say, they are all very good, top shelf agave spirits! The Drove Amberana is the most unique of the Drove line, the Roble Blanco Salvaje was my favorite so of course we took a bottle home! Wild Hare is a definite visit if you're ever in the Phoenix area, so glad we were able to add it to our US Distillery Journey!

    Wow. Worth getting an appointment and your. The spirits are truly exceptional- by all means get the Objective Rum and Ginger with dried lime. There is a lot to love here - run by a very knowledgeable couple (Jim and Wendy) that really understand distilling and customer relations. This place is going to explode- wish I could invest. Ambiance is surprisingly cozy for an industrial complex. Take the tour buy the spirits - you won't regret it.

    12/10 recommend! We loved our time with Wendy and Jim. Our experience was very personal and we enjoyed every minute. Wendy's mixed drinks were definitely a hit. We felt no rush while we were having our tastings with an extra drink added. It was very intimate and low key, which is exactly what we had wanted.

    Dirty martini with Wild Hare smooth Vodka!

    Amazing owners and amazing types of alcohol. So many types and flavors for anyone. The owners are so sweet.

    Killing time in downtown Mesa, I stumbled upon this particular distillery. The reviews looked good,…read moreand as a lover of spirits and cocktails, I decided to give them a try Through the front doors you take a right and enter a very intimate lounge and bar area. The light is very dim, but you can see the central bar, the almost decorative stills behind glass in the back, and many booths and seating areas You order your drinks at the bar. They have a list of signature and classic options using spirits distilled at the whiskey as well as other spirits. Each cocktail is a work of art. The artisanal elixirs are made to order right in front of you at the bar. This means they are quality drinks, but it also means they take slightly longer because they're made with care... they also might cost you a bit money The staff are friendly. We spoke to a couple about the cocktails, the distillery, eating options in the area, etc The drinks are solid. They aren't the heaviest of pours or too strong. Each cocktail has specific drink rate, garnishes, etc that will accompany it The distillery has a prime location, smack dab in the middle of the downtown Mesa. You can find restaurants, bars, shops, and even a place where you can both play pinball and shop for antiques or a spot where you can eat Cronuts while playing Super Mario Kart (Outcast) Some tips: Tell the bartender what you enjoy drinking and let them guide you towards a selection They offer tours on Saturdays (1hr in length) where you can learn more about the distilling process and try samples They have a couple clarified cocktails that were truly unique and refreshing. If you're into that They are open 7 days a week but their hours vary depending on the day Cheers!!

The…read morevibe is super chill and welcoming - perfect desert escape with that authentic local feel. The staff here are seriously knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. Our bartender/guide was awesome - took the time to explain the whole distillation process, answered all our random questions, and really made the tasting feel personal without being pushy. Great energy all around! Their Carefree Bourbon is legit outstanding - smooth, rich with nice depth, warm finish that isn't too harsh. Definitely one of the best local bourbons I've tried in AZ. But wow, the Chakra Vodka lineup stole the show for me. All the infused flavors are so creative and well-balanced. My absolute favorite was the Third Eye - Grapefruit & Lavender. That bright citrus pop from the grapefruit mixed with the soft, floral lavender is pure magic - refreshing, elegant, and dangerously easy to sip. I could drink it all day (and almost did ). We also ordered one of their charcuterie boards to go with the tasting, and oh man - it was delicious! Beautifully arranged with a great selection of cheeses, cured meats, fresh fruit, nuts, and some local honey and crackers. Everything paired so perfectly with the spirits - the board elevated the whole experience and made it feel like a proper little afternoon treat. Highly recommend getting one (or sharing one) while you sip! Highly recommend the tasting flight - great value and you get to try everything. We'll definitely be back next time we're up in Cave Creek. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and stop in!

The service was pretty good but it seemed like they catered to their local regulars over just visitors, but that's understandable. We all tried the flights. My friend and my son tried to different flavored vodkas and the two varieties of bourbon while I chose to try four different flavors of vodka because I don't really care for bourbon. My favorite flavor of the vodka was the coconut lychee. Very delicious My husband just got a Coca Cola and my daughter tried a mocktail that tasted just like a melted dreamsicle Overall I would say it was a nice experience

But then in the middle of eating the staff went to remove all the shades just as the sun was setting. Except no one could see and all we could was a big ball of light and I couldn't see the other person at my table or my food, it was blinding. (See pic below- it wasn't just me that was struggling) no clue why they would take all the shades down as the sunset. They have this whole new dip thing going. We tried the tomato and almond dip 4/5 The Caesar dip 5/5 The bruschetta dip 1/5 I got the BBQ sliders which were so good! I let my husband have 2 of mine because it liked it way more than his Asian salad Asian salad lacked much flavor but texture was good Son loves his burger always from here. And we tried the apple pie dessert which was delicious (not the best I've ever had but good)
