    Such a nice tasting and history of the run and flavors. Nice young men and a great stop. Very reasonable tasting and the rum was a great price

    Very cute and quaint and tiny place for some yummy liquor tastings. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable and the tastings were delish. Not any seating anywhere from what I can see to enjoy the tasting, but I was only there maybe abt 20min and was done so was all good.

    My family visited the distillery last Saturday for a tour and tasting. For only $10 each, it's certainly a great deal (and you get to keep the shot glass)! There were 2 in our party under 21 so they couldn't taste the rum but they enjoyed the tour. The facility has a lot of history and it's a small, family-owned and family-run business. It's a hidden gem in Rock Hill and a unique experience for the City! The rum was good, customer service was great, and we enjoyed the experience!

    Wonderful rums and a special place you can tell is built with heart. It's in a cool location in Rock Hill. I recommend checking it out!

    This place has done amazing work making this place what it is today…read more Great drinks great bartenders and very knowledgeable tours when available Must visit!

    We overall enjoyed our experience and especially thr mojito and jungle bird drinks…read more It was a rainy cold day for May weather so unfortunately didn't get to sit on the patio as I had hoped! The crowd was a little slow (prob due to weather) so not a super vibrant atmosphere when we arrived but it got a little busier as time went on. We enjoyed all of our cocktails, the ones we ordered were: Daiquiri -- 8.5/10 Jungle bird. -- 10/10 our favorite drink of the night!! Iced coffee (this is a cocktail) -- 9/10 because of the uniqueness and the drink was really yummy Mojito -- 9/10 really good mojito but was heavy on the ice Basil French 75 -- 6.5/10 I personally wouldn't order it again, I was excited to try it but it just wasn't my personal preference Hurricane -- 7/10 didn't love this one and asked for more sour mix I would absolutely come here again, especially on a nice summer day, and sit outside to enjoy the vibes! I also think it would be fun to come back for live music. I will say we ordered some food and it was just okay, convenient while drinking yes but not really the standout aspect of this place. We got the pretzel with beer cheese and the meat lovers flatbread, which is very small, about the size of a 8 inch personal pan pizza.

    Wow this was a micro craft distillery at its best. Customer service, selection, and knowledge. They…read moretruly deserve being the face of the charlotte area whiskey. 1st entering, you walk into a small area with a gift shop area, bar area, and small separate sitting area on the first floor. The small sitting area also houses their original small still they currently produce their gin in. Pretty cool piece of history. So about the juice...They're really got some good stuff. You can do a curated flight for 10 dollars each pour, you can also do single pours of whatever they have available as well from their core products to the single barrels. I really love what they're doing with the "Story" line where they experiment with different finishes and blends. I'm not a huge rye guy but they are certainly doing it right. That says a lot for me to grab 2 to take home of their rye single barrels..my bartender was so cool and knowledgeable I even grabbed the one he actually picked. Overall 10/10. They're giving the bigger names a definite run for their money. You will not go wrong supporting and drinking local with them. Hands down the best in the charlotte area. They do offer shipping but, you NEED to go in for the full experience and the option to grab distillery exclusive bottles. #Foodierunner approved lol

    It was a scorching hot North Carolina day in April when we arrived for the afternoon tour at…read moreSouthern Grace Distillery. We had paid in advance and made it just in the nick of time to join our group of about a dozen people. The crowd was a mix of adults and children; personally, I didn't quite understand the presence of kids on a jailhouse and whiskey tour, but the group was ready to dive into the history. The tour kicked off with chilling news of hauntings. Our guide mentioned that the show "Ghost Hunters" had even visited the site, certifying the old jail as haunted--though fortunately by "friendly" spirits. The sensory experience was a bit of a rollercoaster. I generally enjoy the scent of bourbon, and the initial aroma upon entering the distillery is quite pleasant. However, the main room where we spent a significant portion of the tour had a scent that was overwhelming and wholly unpleasant. That said, the content of the tour was good. It provided a well-balanced mix of intriguing historical facts about the prison and the technical side of whiskey making. The kids got restless during the tour and actually started brutally kicking each other in the shins. They each had on shell toed Crocs, so you could hear the crunch of bone and flesh beneath each kick. Their parents let it go on indefinitely. The hour passed quickly and was well worth the $14 adult admission. The tasting at the end is not for the faint of heart. They serve hard liquor, and I do mean HARD. My lips were numbing and my face was next. I had to tap out after the third swig! On the bright side, the gift shop is fantastic. They have the most darling items; we walked away with two tote bags and a delicious pink lemonade drink that will be perfect for sharing with friends this summer. This is a unique, affordable way to spend an hour, provided you can handle the heat and the high proof!

    This place is so great! But, fair warning, they are not following regular hours at the moment, so…read moredefinitely try and call before you go. But, the owners were absolutely fantastic! It is a small space in a very hidden location (just follow the signs once you park) and the tour is more informative than anything else. Where this place shines is their product, and let's be honest, you didn't come to learn about the distillation process, you came for the booze! They are so generous with their tastings and everything they make is incredible, but the amaretto is where they shine! Their prices for bottles are also very reasonable and you get to keep the shot glass as a souvenir. Plus, Chris, and especially Rick, are so congenial and you can swap stories with them for hours! They are doing a release of their new bottle design, so stay tuned!

We were immediately greeted by one of the owners, Chris. This man has such an amazing story! We learned so much about the spirit making process. You can tell he knows his stuff! He answered all of our questions and went into details on how every machine works. What's even more amazing is that he and his partner self-taught themselves how to do this. Genius. To top it all off, we got to taste their rum, amaretto, and apple pie moonshine. Our favorite was the amaretto, which we bought for $24! We even got two shot glasses. I love how everything is handmade from start to finish. Come and bring your friends - ask questions - you'll come out learning so much (and slightly tipsy) lol.
