    Still. Pic taken on our tour.

    Did a tour here and had a couple of cocktails afterwards. The staff is so incredibly friendly and prideful of the distillery. And the building is absolutely stunning. I'd definitely recommend taking a tour- they're only $10 and you get to sample their spirits and see the beautiful room that they excavated where they keep their fermenters and still. Their cocktails at the bar are fabulous. Tried the watermelon mule, the dirty cherry coke, and the cinnamon coloda. The coloda was the best, but they were all great. Very reasonably priced too. Their bottles that are for sale are also reasonably priced as well. We ended up buying the rye whiskey because it was the spirit that we liked the most on the tasting, but also because it isn't distributed and we aren't local. Despite not being local, I would totally drive up here anytime for a cocktail. They have a super cute patio and you can tell that they've put a lot of love and time into making their facility enjoyable. Loved this place.

    I seen that they had a distillery in the town that we were staying at and said that we would check it out on Saturday. We met someone at the Blue Barn Winery the night before and they suggested that we do a tour of the distillery and I signed up for the tour. We arrived on Saturday for the 2 PM tour and guess what we were the only ones on the tour. The guy did a wonderful job. He started off and explained the history of the building and where the name of the distillery originated from. The distillery name originates from a coal mine in the area from the early 1800's, and then another business in the early 1900's and eventually here we are it's a distillery. They opened up 8 years ago, and been in the building for 4 years, but only have a manufacturer license at the moment. You can only sample tastings, but no mix drinks etc; because they still do not have a liquor license. It's disappointing because it's a great place. The tour begins and he tells us about how each of the different liquors are made. He said for the Gin and Vodka that they only use 4 of the 12 area spacers in the still when making the Gin/Vodka, but for Rye and Bourbon they will go to the top, distill, and go back through again to keep the flavor. We tried all of the whiskeys in the back except for Cinnamon and Peach, which we tried up front and will get back to. Vodka: I'm haven't been a vodka person since I drank 13 shots in 30 mins when I was 21, yeah not a smart move. Anyhow this Vodka had a nice tangy sweet to the point that I could drink it. Gin: This had to be the best GIN that's I've ever had. I've had a few Gins and like a christmas tree liquor but this one was really good. Wish I'd purchased one, but purchased 3 bottles of other products, so maybe not the best move to purchase it all. :) Rye: This was really good. It had a nice taste to it. Easy to sip on without ice. Bourbon: This is the second, if not the best bourbon that I've had ever. It was a great taste. Apple Whiskey: Yum this had a nice apple taste, not real bold but right to the point. Loved it... We tried the Cinnamon and Peach and they were both terrific. Probably the best Cinnamon that I've had before. First time I've gone to a distillery besides Liberty Pole Spirits in Pittsburgh, PA area that I liked everything I tasted. Overall I highly recommend this place. It's going to be a great place. Lots of future in this business.

    Minglewood has been open for a few months now, and I'm so glad I finally got a chance to visit. I arrived just as the last tour of the day began, (45 minutes before closing. Take note!), so I guess I had to skip just to the tasting part. For $7 I got to sample the 5 spirits currently on sale. Going down the line: Vodka - Crisp. Fresh. Doesn't taste like rocket fuel! Ohio is doing some great things with winter wheat based vodkas, and Minglewood does a great job with this vodka. Gin - I hate gin. I'm not a gin guy. I don't like when my mouth tastes the way a taxi cab smells. But the restraint in using the juniper and pairing with the herbs and citrus make this a really accessible gateway gin. If you want to build your way up to those hardcore British pine-dare gins, this is your way to go. I'd drink this in a G+T any day. Rye - Of the spirits, this came off as the most harsh, but also the most complex. Maybe it would benefit from a little chilling or a bit more water, but there was a lot of the burned hay notes when I drank this. It's still really good, locally produced, and hits you with the spice on the finish. This is not a pedestrian Rye. Bourbon - Oh baby. I love bourbon. LOVE bourbon. It's my thing. Is this the most incredible bourbon that I've ever had? No. I'm a snob in this area, no apologies. I like longer aged bourbons, and this one has 2 years under its belt. However, comparing this to other young bourbons, I'd prefer this 9 days out of 10. (I'd name the brands it beats, but I'm not looking to hurt anyone's feelings.) If you're not a fan of smoky, deep bourbons, this is for you. You're going to get a lot more of a syrupy, vanilla, toasty finish. Call it a "table bourbon." Cinnamon Whisky - This was last in the tasting. Save for the gin, (which was a pleasant surprise), this was the sample I was least looking forward to having. I went from pleasant surprise to hidden gem with this one. I had visions of Fireball and all of those gimmick cinnamon spirits in weird bottles. This is not those things. This is like if Fireball straightened up, got a haircut, and got a real job. It's cinnamon whisky for actual adults. It's got a cinnamon kick, but not a bludgeoning or burning. It's magnificent. I drink it over ice, and it's smooth and wonderful and flavorful. I bought a bottle on the spot. There are additional notes about Minglewood here. They've got a great story, a really cool building, and plenty of space to bring friends for the tour / post tour sampling. I'd tell you the story, but I'll defer to the pros. In the meantime, visit and mingle!

    Very cool spot. I came here as part of/after the "Spirits & Spirits" boat ride down the canal. That…read moreapple pie batch is awesome. I love the character of the venue. Vinnie, the owner is very cool and knowledgeable, and I appreciated learning more about the moonshine process and his business. I will always do my best to patronize small businesses like Canal Spirits. I also appreciated the stories about the building's interesting history and strange/paranormal occurrences. I'll be back again. I am looking forward to trying the pumpkin whisky.

You can order food from the upstairs restaurant and there are plenty of tasty cocktails to try. They specialize in whiskey, but as of the date of this review, they now have rum! Even if you're not a huge whiskey person (I'm not), they had some very delicious, easy-drinking whiskeys, like their Apple Pie Moonshine and the Spiced Apple Cranberry. Stop to sample everything or grab a cocktail! It feels like a speakeasy because it's in a dark, cool, little basement, and the decor sports hand-hewn beams and original sandstone block walls. The owners are personable and proud of their work: ALL ingredients are local, local, local! They were more than willing to take people on a tour! You can even rent out the place for events too. Find their products in the Massillon Giant Eagle, the Mini Mart in Canal Fulton, the Fishers on Fulton, or Lakes Beverage in Akron. Great little find!

    We knew that we were going to be in the area and I "googled distilleries near me" our famous search…read moreand this place popped up. I looked them up on social media and finally the website. I seen that they were only opened on Saturday's, but you could sign up for a private distillery tasting in which I did. We arrived a few minutes early on Wednesday before our 11:30 AM tasting. We patiently waited and heard someone in the back but no response. I yelled "hello" and a woman appeared out of no where and said can I help you and I told her who I was. She seemed confused and said that Jeff Kline (one of the owners) is at a boyscout camp and that there may have been some confusion. I showed her my confirmed booking. She had called one of the other owners, Jeff's wife. As she did that she was very nice to show me around and show me where the magic happens. I was able to visit the distillery room, where they make the labels and package the products. It was a pleasant tour of the place while we waited. The other owner Angelique was on her way. She arrived and apologized and was very nice. These things happen as I personally know. She provided us the run down of the different products that they have. One happens to be a bourbon which I asked if it's made in Kentucky because they only way you can say "Kentucky Straight Bourbon" as if it's made there. She said as they had just opened in March of 2023, they have to source the bourbon for now from a place in Bardstown. She mentioned about the shortage on wine barrels and I had explained that I was aware as I had ordered barrels for my wine making in 2021 and just received one this year. She mentioned that her and her husband would always go camping with their friends. The master distiller (friend) would always bring his new drinks that he made up from moonshine and or whiskey and would always say it's so good. 2020 happened, and they started to spend more time working on products that they decided why not opening up a distillery and going in as partners. They opened up in March of 2023. She started to provide us a list of the different products that they offer by providing us a background of how it was made. "Black Dog Bourbon", named after one of the labs "Lucy", who is the youngest of the 4 labs, hence the name "Four Dogs", Blue Label Vodka that is distilled 4 times, which is named after Linus, the first of the family of Labradors, when they brought him home he cuddled up in a blue blanked and well Blue Label Vodka was born, Miss Mae's Moonshine which is distilled at 120 proof, got some heat on it but wow do you taste the flavors on this one, which is named after Dixie Mae, and they have Miss Mae's Moonshine Cinnamon Fire at 90 proof but this one is much better than the fireball, it has a unique but good taste to it. On top of it it's all clear liquid which is fantastic. We tried all of them, you're permitted 4 quarter pours, they had 6 to try, and I tried 3 and my wife tried 3 which provided us with 6 products. Liked them all, could of and should have purchased them all. They have a toasted marshmallow coming out that sounds incredible and can't wait to try, which means that we have to come back. We walked away with the Bourbon, Mis Mae's Cinnamon Fire and Vodka, I have to say Vodka isn't my thing but this one was extremely smooth. I can drink it straight and now I can make with my mix drink instead of using gin. Overall it started off confusing and we could have left, but decided to stay and be optimistic in which was a great turn out of trying some great new products. This is a small batch place, but give them a shot. I look forward to visiting more in the future to see what turns out with this new upcoming distillery in the Ohio region.

    From the owner: We are a local distillery specializing in small batch craft spirits that you won't find anywhere…read moreelse.
