OMG what a hidden gem! All 4 samples - vodka, gin, bourbon, rye were impressively unique and long lasting. Appreciate them sourcing locally and nailing the local terror. As a tapas fan, I love they also had a sampler of cocktails! A nice variety that are thankfully preblended for perfection and speed. Space is spacious and classy, yet warm and welcoming. Absolutely perfect for Cinespia and Hollywood Forever Cemetary events. Hosting themed content prior would be so amazing! read more

We were in the area having brunch and my husband saw there was a distillery right up the street, so we stopped by before heading home. This distillery opened about 4 months ago, they are located directly across the street from Hollywood Forever Cemetery, and the space was previously occupied by a mortuary. The building is gorgeous, spacious, and welcoming. Manager Molly couldn't have been more friendly and knowledgable. We truly enjoyed the time we spent with her. Since we were the only ones there on Super Bowl Sunday she gave us a tour of the facilities and explained in great detail where they source from and how they distill and bottle everything. It's all done by hand here and they truly care about what they are doing! We did tastings of their vodka, gin, and bourbon. They also have rye, and they graciously gave us a tasting of that as well. I honestly loved the vodka (made from dates!) and gin so much. The gin is so fragrant! They locally source all of the herbs that go into it, they call it their love letter to Hollywood, and it's obvious good care was put into making this spirit. After our tastings we both had cocktails, and they were delish. My Oasis Rose with vodka, rose water, date syrup, and lemon was phenominal! I ended up purchasing a few bottles to take home, and I would love to come back here next time I am in the area. So happy we checked them out! read more

I am writing this review based on the ambience as I did not order any drinks but was there for a work event in which my colleagues did enjoy drinks: the staff was friendly and were constantly checking in on everyone. I definitely want to come back on my own in the near future as the drinks looked good and I really liked the ambience and set up of the place. It would be a great place to have an engagement party or even event of about 50-75 people. read more

What a cool fun spot we found. Nicely decorated distillery tasting room. Friendly knowledgeable staff. We ordered the tasting flight. Our favorites were the gin and vodka. Gin had some nice botanicals, smooth with a nice finish. Vodka had some fun flavors and was smooth. We bought a few bottles. The bourbon was pretty good too. Can't wait to make some gin n tonics at home with their gin. read more

Hollywood Distillery is one of those spots that just feels right the second you walk in. You can tell they actually care about what they're pouring and it shows. The Rose Oasis is a must! light, floral, and smooth, made with their Oasis Vodka from Coachella Valley dates, it goes down so easy you forget it's liquor. The staff is knowledgeable, and full of good vibes. Great drinks, great energy, hard not to love this place. it's an great spot for events or special occasions, plus their tours let you see exactly how everything's made. Definitely one to check out if you want a fun venue and a little behind the scenes magic. read more

Finally, a place in Hollywood where spirits meet actual spirits. This is what happens when heaven, hell, and good marketing have a baby. Only in Hollywood could a brand-new distillery rise up directly across from a cemetery full of legends -- because even the dead deserve a drink. I had to stop and take a peek from the outside, and let me tell you -- this place looks phenomenal. You can see the gleam of copper stills through the windows, shining like Oscar trophies for the afterlife. Construction's almost done, and you can already feel it: the hum of potential, the smell of future whiskey, and the vibe that says, "Finally, someone in Hollywood figured out we can't all live on coffee and delusion." Once this thing opens, it's going to be part distillery, part spiritual experience. Tours, tastings, samples -- a pilgrimage for anyone who believes in craftsmanship, booze, and good storytelling. This isn't another hipster gimmick with ironic cocktails and mood lighting; this looks like the real deal -- a cathedral of fermentation built for people who've survived casting calls, traffic, and emotional damage. Drink bourbon, wave at Valentino's grave, and call it a balanced day. The stills look sexier than half the people on Sunset Blvd. Right across from Hollywood Forever Cemetery, this distillery couldn't be better placed. You can tour the graves of the greats -- then tour the stills across the street. Pay respects to Johnny Ramone, then raise a glass in his honor. It's poetic. It's Hollywood. It's perfect. You know that feeling before the lights dim at a theater? That's what this place feels like right now. Through the glass, you can see everything being built -- clean lines, copper shine, and that unmistakable "something big is coming" energy. Distillery isn't even open yet, and it already feels iconic. A distillery with real soul, positioned between the living and the legendary -- this is exactly what this city needs. Hollywood, get ready. The curtain's about to rise -- and this time, it's liquid gold. read more

Went there after a service and the bartender was amazing and kind. She was very personable and asked us questions and we felt very welcome here. She mentioned it was essentially a family business and the entire experience was very kind and wholesome. Would recommend this to anyone in the area. read more

We went today for a tour and tasting. They offered tastes of vodka, gin, bourbon and rye. The two serving us could not have been more knowledgeable or welcoming. We had a great time at this mortuary turned distillery. Wonderful way to spend a couple of hours! Highly recommend! read more

We visited The Hollywood Distillery yesterday and were just blown away. It's only been in business a couple months and it's such a handsome, impressive establishment. Very sharp and fashionable and they make the most exquisite gin (made with locally-harvested herbals), and vodka (with dates) on site. They also have a couple of superb whiskies that are currently aged in San Pedro. The tour was fascinating, the staff were just a delight and, of course, the tasting was sensational. Highly recommended. read more

Such an amazing place! Rainy day specials!! The gin martini was so unique, and the staff was welcoming and so kind.

I have been on other distillery tours, theirs needs a little work; however they just getting started. Given a little time and I think it will be very good. Their products are pretty good and are worth the price. Hope they succeed. read more

The hospitality here was great, the drinks are good, the business has done good with what use to be a crematorium to build a nice atmosphere but sadly we won't be back. We went here for a good drink, talk about the business but when the server brought up politics it ruined the vibes. We don't care if you hate trump, we don't care if you like trump but leave politics and religion outside at the door. read more
