    Big Kid Cider
    Kailee P.

    We love the Big Kid Cider - Mix it in with hot apple cider packets and some honey and you're set! We always recommend Up North!

    Up North just won best distillery in North Idaho, and for good reason. The owners are crafting truly unique spirits made from honey, apples, malts, and even pine cones. Highly recommend getting the Gauntlet Flight and trying all 9 of their spirits. The owners are very nice people who are passionate about creating great products!

    A cozy award winning craft distillery specializing in brandy, whiskey and honey spirits. Tastings range from the apple brandies to the aged whiskey, $8-$12 for a flight of three. Fruits, honey and grains are locally sourced, hand batched and super smooth to enjoy both in a cocktail or a snifter. Bottles of spirits can also be purchased in the shop next door. Their cocktail menu is absolutely amazing, and offers a unique range of flavors and unique concepts. Must try: Walnut ginger old fashioned - Barrel reserve honey spirits muddled with fresh ginger, walnut bitters and demerara Smoke in the Meadow - Barrel reserve honey spirits St. Germain and bitters Served in a cedar smoked glass This is a must do for spirit and cocktail lovers!

    Small, cozy tasting room

    I love these little hidden gems. Such a cozy place to have some serious upscale cocktails! These guys also run, or own or supply, not 100% sure, The Bees Knees in Hayden, another of our favorites when we're feeling bougee! Great place to unwind. The summer time usually sees a local food truck out there.

    An excellent Old fashioned!

    We had so much fun here and were so glad we drove out from Coeur d'Alene to check it out! It was definitely one of our favorite experiences during our stay in the area. Our bartender was amazing - knowledgeable about all things alcohol and fun to chat with. That's exactly what we hope to find when we walk into a distillery and sit at the bar! We thought he might have been part owner based on his knowledge and comfort level, but he said he had only been there for maybe 4 months! What a find for Up North Distillery! When we couldn't find a bourbon distillery, we decided to check out this place which specializes in honey spirits. We weren't too sure what to expect and I'd have to say we were pleasantly surprised. We tasted a couple of their spirits and liked the fact that they weren't sweet like we had guessed they would be. I think they are definitely a place people should check out and definitely don't prejudge if you've never had their spirits before. If you're unsure of what to order, hubby and I would certainly recommend the old fashioned made with their spirits instead of bourbon.

    Tastes of the honey as well as the apple spirits were fabulous! Randy took time to explain the process and I walked away feeling educated! Grabbed a long sleeve hoodie and a fifth of the apple bourbon! We will be back again one day!

    Love this place!

    Sawmill Grille & Spirits in Post Falls absolutely deserves five stars…read more My wife had the meatloaf burger, and I went with the cod fish and chips. Both were outstanding. The cod was cooked to perfection -- tender, flaky, and not overcooked. The batter was light, crispy, and full of flavor without overpowering the fish. Honestly, the fish was so good it didn't even need tartar sauce, which is saying something. Their tartar sauce was outstanding too, but the fish easily stood on its own. My wife's meatloaf burger was just as impressive. Perfectly seasoned meatloaf, crispy onions, and cheese made for one hell of a burger. Definitely not your everyday burger, and she loved it. A big part of what made the visit memorable was our bartender, Dave. He was fantastic helping us with a couple specialty drinks and made sure we got exactly what we were looking for. We also found out Dave is an Air Force veteran, and he did us a solid by making sure we received the military discount. That kind of gesture means a lot and was greatly appreciated. Great food is one thing, but when you combine it with genuinely great service and someone behind the bar who actually takes care of people, that's what makes you remember a place. Excellent food, outstanding drinks, and fantastic service from Dave. Sawmill Grille & Spirits nailed it, and we'll absolutely be back.
