Lugo's Craft Distillery, can you say hand crafted elegant RUM cocktails; yes that is right RUM…read more OMG, I surely wasn't expecting to love rum as much as I did on this visit. The venue is chic and in my opinion elegant. It was tight and a little cloistered, you can squeeze about 50 or so people in there. Even so, there is a limited bar area and lounge type seating with couches, etc. I came on a Thursday evening and got to meet a few of the refulars. Really like this place. So imagine classic craft cocktails like an old fashion or a martini, but with RUM. That blows my mind. I had a smoked old fashion and it was smoother with the rum and tasted just as good. A few things you need to know. There are no menus except for a QR code. You can set up an account and order that way. If they are not too busy, you can also order the old fashioned way by talking to a human. The humans on this visit were Chad the bartender and Alex who I think was the manager. Alex was both knowledgeable, friendly and I think the creator of many of these genius cocktails. I really need to go back because on this trip we were on a budget. The drinks are on average between $14 - $18 and well worth the price, but as you can imagine the bill can get "bigly" pretty quick if you lose track enjoying the fantastic ligation.

My favorite was the American Pie cocktail which was in their Fall Cocktail Sneak Peak menu. It was amazing and perfectly creamy with hints of apple and caramel.

Can you say Mead in Plant City Florida. That is where Three Hands Mead Company is. We found great…read moreMead in a most unexpected place. Winning!!! Three Hands, asked Cody, what's up with the three hands. He said, there is just the two of us and it is great to have a third hand. And that makes so much sense. If you visit Three Hands, the first thing you will notice is the Bob Ross theme. Because he is everywhere, including on the TV. And when I say Bob Ross is everywhere, he is as prevalent as the honey combs. The MEAD: Not for the faint of Tart 14% ABV... oh yes .... this is delicious, the slightly tart cranberries balance out the sweetness of the mead Honey N Apples 11% ABV... this is a Cyser and not what I was expecting. I was thinking apple pie, but I got just great mead flavor. Just a tad boozy. You down with OBT? 8% ABV... yeah, you know me. This mead to me is perfect. Not too sweet and not boozy. Yummmm Clermont Cooler 10% ABV... tastes like a citrus nectar. Sweet, but really good. S.O.B. 8% ABV... this is a spicy orange mead. Great orange flavor and just slightly spicy. I loved it! FIRE!!!! Berries from the Bog 14% ABV... this is tart and it slapped me in the face. In my opinion, needs to be really cold to taste the most awesome. I can honestly say I like the mead here better than any other place in Florida. I met some wonderful folks here and I definitely will be returning.

We stopped into Three Hands Mead in Plant City for a quick visit on our last trip, and we'll be…read morecoming back every time we're in the area! What a fantastic find! I'd heard about this place and was curious to try it, though I hesitated a bit since my husband isn't a wine drinker- but good news: they offer beer as well! Tha space is open, airy, and cozy at once. You can tell the design and decor we're thoughtfully planned with guests in mind- even the bathroom was impressive. Since it was on a Saturday afternoon, the crowd was light, but a few passionate regulars were there, just as enthusiastic as the proud owner, Cody. To make our experience even better, Cody shared the history of mead- one of the oldest drinks in the world, wine made from honey. Who would've imagined honey could be transformed this way? Their selection ranges from sweet to extra dry. I tried two of their dry options: Not for the Faint of Tart, a berry-forward blend, and Almost Bone Dry, made purely of honey. Both were delicious, refreshing, and not sweet at all. My husband gave in and tried the SOB and was surprised by how much he enjoyed it, especially for someone who doesn't drink wine. We truly loved our experience at Three Hands Mead. It's officially on our list of must-stop places whenever we're in Plant City.
