We sampled Whiskey, gin & vodka & told stories, laughed, reminiscing about younger years. Simply connecting & enjoying the moment. Every bottle was met with ooohhh, hmmm, so I like that more than the last bottle? Choosing was extremely difficult & we picked 4 bottles!!! Their Scotch- Whiskey was phenomenal. The berry-ube gin wowed me (I knew just from the smell, but the flavor was... phenomenal). The happy accident bottle, a blend of gin & whiskey with a punch of lemon was bright and delightful. And the fourth bottle I'll have to update, because there were too many i loved. I can't remember which other one we picked. I highly recommend giving them a try! Fantastic service and spirits.

It took me forever to figure out where this might be located, but now I know its in an industrial area near Paine Field. Lots of parking out front and super easy to find if you use a maps app. It's not a huge place, but plenty of room for a small group. You can do a tasting or have a cocktail. You can also buy spirits to go. There is a huge variety here, whiskey, scotch, gin, etc. For 10$ you can do a tasting that includes 8 tastes. There are a variety of interesting things to try. They have a cart they bring out to pour from. You can ask tons of questions and read about all the tasting notes of whatever you try. Everything was delicious. On my next visit I will certainly try a cocktail. Do check it out if you have never been, it is worth a special trip.

I was introduced to this winery via their multi-award winning Albarino. I just could not stop…read morethinking about it and had to go back. Their tasting room location is in Apple Farm Village- which is one of those spots I drive by all the time and think "wow that looks cute, I should go." This time, I actually went. The backside of this building isn't visible from the road, but is SO lovely. They have a beautiful patio with hydrangeas, huge vines, and other plants. It looks like a dream pnw backyard and has so much greenery. They even have a fig tree. It feels very much like the old days of Woodinville when it was all farms- very nostalgic and romantic. The indoor space had great AC and great vibes. It was a pleasure to meet the winemaker- he cares so much about what he does and has a deep knowledge of wine and everything that goes along with it. Their price point is very low for the quality of wines they have. I attended a wine and sushi pairing here and it was out of this world. I feel like this spot may just be one of Woodinville's best kept secrets, but I am ready to let the word out because they truly deserve people to know about them! Not a bad wine in the bunch. From the chablis-style chardonnay to the rich tempranillo, I was impressed throughout. The staff is very proud of their wine, and honestly, I am too. If you want to feel like you are in the lovely garden of a sweet, GENIUS, winemaker and drink his incredible wines, this is your spot. Enjoy the serene patio and definitely dive into their phenomenal selection of white wines.

Walked into this little tasting room in Apple Farm Village after getting a recommendation from…read moreanother local vintner and walked out with a few bottles and a membership. Cory, the owner and one-man-winemaking operation, is an artist with grapes. His wines are tannin-free, which if you don't like getting punched in the face by a pucker-inducing beverage, you'll probably appreciate. I prefer whites and his albarino and rose are both fantastic, but we enjoyed all of the samples we tasted in the flight. 425 is well worth your time and your support not only helps a one-man operation remain in business, but also supports a veteran and his family.

J.P. Trodden Distilling has some of the best bourbon around! I've been wanting to check out JP's…read moresince it was formerly located in Woodinville and a friend who's a member raved about this place. But now that I've tasted it for myself, I can see myself returning for more bottles of bourbon. My friends and I were having a wine tasting day in the Maltby area, and decided to check out JP as our last stop. J.P. Trodden Distilling is a small-batch distillery, featuring bourbon whiskeys. The distillery is small, but has enough room for tastings and hanging out. I did the tasting flight, which included three bourbons, one whiskey and a maple syrup! All of the tastings were fantastic, and for anyone who likes dark liquors, JP is a spot to try. I ended up taking home a bottle of the single cask bourbon, but everything is great here. Staff was friendly and accommodating and it should be noted that there were free Seattle Chocolate truffles here! If straight up bourbons aren't your thing, they also have a couple cocktails that feature the bourbon to try. This was an awesome visit and one of many!

This location is not as scenic as the Woodinville one, but I like it very much as well.

I recommend JM for a wine tasting destination.

Nice because the one in Woodinville is quite packed and often used for an event. All the wines were great and they were doing barrel tastings while we were there -fun! Will be back for sure.

This is an amazing place if you have any interest at all in craft cocktails and how to make them…read moreeven better. Basics of this business is that they distill Amaros, Curacao, Falernum and vermouths along with some other really interesting spirits (like douglas fir infused liquor). They get a lot of their recipe ideas for Amaros and vermouths by working directly with bartenders who give them ideas about what they would like to have in order to blend even better and more unique cocktails. They obviously listen well and do their research because what they make is incredibly good. Mac, our host and the distiller, is a fascinating guy with great stories and contagious enthusiasm for his craft. The stories behind each blend, including the trial and error, is incredibly entertaining and informative. For my wife, who has begun to experiment with making Amaros and loves to barrel age classic cocktails, this was an incredible education that helped her fill in a lot of blanks about what she needed to do to have better results. And Mac gave her great ideas and leads on where to find the best quality ingredients and how to use them in the blending process. But even if your not a great cocktail enthusiast, this is still a great place to go. I think they are appointment only. They keep the place cool in the winter so bring a jacket. Prepare to be amazed. Playing The Bands "Last Waltz" in the background didn't hurt either.

It feels very different now than it has in the past, in a good way. The wines are lovely! I loved their selection, they have both French and Spanish styles. I got an Albarino then tried the rose, which really impressed me. They had some great glass pour deals when I was there. The owners are a total delight. I loved chatting with them and learning more about their story. Great people. I attended a floral class here and can't wait to go back with friends. They host all kinds of fun events here! The patio was awesome- felt very European to me. There were some kids out there so I personally didn't sit there but would love to return with some gals to soak up the sun.

Invite does say feel free to bring your own lawn chair and many people did. Which was a great idea because it did get pretty packed. We were lucky to snag seats inside so all was good. My one comment about this would be the cover to get in. $50 and all it came with was a token for a pre-made empanada served from a hot box outside. We gave our tokens away to some random people we met. For $50 I would have preferred a token for a glass of wine and serve some actual real food with a few options to choose from. $50 is a bit much when you have to buy their wine and bring your own chair. Anyway, we had a decent time, chatted with some new people we met, danced to a few songs and left just before 10pm. A decent time was had and we might consider doing again. Maybe.
