This distillery came up and looked like a cool place. It's not big, but it does feature a seated bar, as well as an area with a couch to chill at. They serve both flights of their whiskey, as well as offer cocktails. I opted to try a flight to try a variety. Some of the whiskey does come off strong (i.e. the Full Proof) and was interesting to try. Surprisingly, the most memorable of the bunch was the Blaze. I'd say it resembles more like Fireball whiskey, except it's much smoother and doesn't taste cheap. I'm not normally a fan of Fireball, but you can easily sit down and try Blaze with friends, and they'll probably enjoy it.

Widow Jane is a great distillery located in Red Hook Brooklyn. I took a tour and tasting last week…read moreand it was interesting. You don't think that NYC would have a top notch bourbon distiller but they do with Widow Jane. I took a tour last week while visiting and had a good time. Ryan,the tour guide, is also an employee in the distillery. He was informative and the story behind how Widow Jane started was fascinating. They are now affiliated with Heaven Hill which gives them national exposure and distribution in all fifty states. I came here because one I was in town and two a neighbor gave me a bottle of WJ bourbon as a gift a couple of months ago and I really like it. I had no idea they were in Red Hook and he told me that they are in Brooklyn. Anyway, I stayed after the tour and had a couple of cocktails at the bar. The Sazerac and Old Fashioned were top notch. Definitely pay Widow Jane a visit if you happen to be in Red Hook.

As someone who always looks for a distillery stop when paths cross, Widow Jane did not disappoint. The space has a great industrial, Brooklyn-cool vibe, from the tables to the shelving to the bar itself. It feels intentional, hip, and still very much focused on the whiskey. What I really appreciated was the flexibility of the experience. You can order cocktails, flights, and even single or double pours, which made it easy for our group to explore the lineup in different ways. We ordered different flights across the table so we could sample broadly, and that approach paid off. They also offer a small but thoughtful selection of food items, perfect for pairing with tastings and taking the edge off while you explore the lineup. Nothing heavy, but exactly what you want when you are spending time with good whiskey. Two pours really stood out. The 10-year distillery-only release was excellent and worth the visit on its own, and the Black Opul 20 Year was something special. On the nose it leaned heavy into mature oak with some dark chocolate and dried fruit, and once you sipped it you got caramel, toasted nuts, a little leather, and a finish that just kept hanging around in the best way. It is one of those pours that makes you slow down and really appreciate what is in the glass. The atmosphere was relaxed, the staff knowledgeable, and the experience approachable without being dumbed down. A great stop for both casual fans and serious bourbon drinkers alike. Glad we made the stop, and I would absolutely return.

The other people on the tour were also very welcoming, which made it even more fun. The tour lasted about an hour and gave us a great look into the history of bourbon and whiskey how it's made, the materials used, how it's stored, and the aging process. The tastings were definitely strong, but I learned new ways to enjoy bourbon and whiskey and discovered the different flavor notes in each pour. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, informative, and memorable experience!

We ordered an Expresso Martini (Vodka) and a Bees Knees Cocktail (Gin). Dario brought our drinks to our table. The cocktails were so yummy! SCD only sells chips and other related snacks. Best to eat before you arrive. Overall, Silk City Distillery has remained consistent since my last visit. Extras: - All alcohol is made at the distillery. - Distillery tours are available by appointment. - SCD has some hilarious Tee Shirts for sale. - 2 Restrooms on the premises. - Adjoining Ghost Hawk Brewery shares a small parking lot with SCD. Street parking is available too.

My buddy came for a visit and wanted to do a few breweries and I thought, hey I always see a sign…read morefor a distillery we should do that. I made the appointment for a tour and tasting online. It said it should take 90 minutes all together. The distillery is located around a bit of a maze of warehouses and cars. It is kind of alone in its area when you find it. It's also not that big. When we showed up, they were definitely not ready for us. I'm sure the website didn't alert them, that's fine, we weren't in a hurry or anything. Plus we were really the only people there. The tour was quick, they weren't distilling at the time, so it was just kind of a this is what we do and this is the equipment we use kind of thing. They have a small bar up front and that is where we did the tasting. We tried the four different products, a rye, a bourbon, a distilled IPA and the mahia which is a fig based spirit. I'm not an IPA guy, so that was my least favorite, the mahia wasn't necessarily my thing either, but the bourbon and rye were absolutely killer. I've always been a big rye fan, but a lot people aren't. I decided on buying a bottle of the bourbon for the apartment. The place is nice, the owners are really good people. It was a fun little stop. Also, it was not 90 minutes, maybe 30-40. Might be longer if they are distilling. I'd absolutely recommend stopping in and taking the tour/tasting. Support local businesses.
