Either all places in Whidbey island are amazing or I just happened to hit all the good ones. A friend from WA recommended we stop by here if we had time and so glad we did. We had a tasting of their delicious whiskey and liquors. All of them were outstanding: raspberry, blackberry regular and with orange peel and loganberry. Service is amazing, of course it's a small place so owners and the makers of the stuff are serving you as well. After the tasting, we proceeded to have cocktails in their back patio which also has live music 2-4 pm on weekends. We actually came back for the live music and listened to lovely singer in their patio while sipping cocktails. And of course I had to bring home some of the liquors as they were too good to leave them there. Definitely a must do while on Whidbey island. read more

Great distillery to visit! Free tasting and great "bartender" (I forgot to ask his name..) who explained very well on what we were tasting. He told us that local restaurants like Prima Bistro in Langley uses their rye whiskey to make Old Fashioned (which we have tried unknowingly that the base whiskey was from here). We ended up purchasing a bottle of the rye whiskey which was light and easy to drink. Inside is small and cozy. There are outdoor spaces that's covered. We were told that there are live music events time to time. We will come back! read more

Very friendly welcome right when we walked in! We tried the complimentary tasting of their 90 proof whiskey along with the berry liqueurs - blackberry, raspberry, loganberry, and boysenberry. All were smooth and flavorful, and the boysenberry orange peel, and blackberry ones especially stood out. We ended up taking home a mini bottle of the blackberry liqueur and enjoyed a boysenberry old fashioned outside. Such a fun stop, highly recommend trying their delicious offerings if you're in the area! read more

Check them out! Free tasting and you will go home with one of their liqueurs without a doubt, they taste amazing and are overall pretty natural, no added sugar! My husband and I stopped in and we are so glad we did. We enjoyed the free tasting and the gentleman we worked with was so knowledgeable about the island, he helped us plan our full day there and we loved every spot we went to! Thank you so much! read more

A wonderful experience at Whidbey Island Distillery. Showed up with a baby and a dog for a tasting. Sat at a lovely little table outside where we treated phenomenal rye whiskey and some berry liquors. The general manager who led our tasting was kind, knowledgeable, and suggested a few other good spots to check out. The other folks that wandered in were friendly as well. Walked away with several bottles - it was just that good! read more

Whidbey Island Distillery - Blackberry liquor - going to be phenomenal in a fall flavored mule! - Distilleries Near Me - Langley, Washington

Little hidden gem seriously buried in a bunker. Easy to blow right past it as we did for 5 years. Great whiskeys and liqueurs. Colton was great and knows the products and methods well. Bought a couple bottles and a liqueur sampler. Recommended! read more

Whidbey Island Distillery - Limited Rye Wisdom and Bunker Rye. Delicious. - Distilleries Near Me - Langley, Washington

The best distillery tasting ever. The fruits and liquors were smooth and well balanced. They offered 5 kinds. We were so impressed with the tasting! They also had local chocolate samples, which were creamy and delicious. The place is family friendly, our kid was offered a juice box (honest) and chocolate hearts. Jonathan was very knowledgeable and friendly- read more

I can't speak well enough of this distillery. We went for the free tasting, and ended up buying a bottle of the deliciously sweet Bunker rye! They even made us tiny cocktails at the end because it was my birthday. The host was super friendly and knowledgeable, and she didn't pressure us to buy anything. We wanted to taste outdoors (because we had our dog) and she made it very easy for us by bringing a bottle outside for each tasting. Our favorite was the rye, but the liqueurs were unique and tasty (though they were a bit too sweet for us to drink neat). Even their water was great ;) Thanks Whidbey Island Distillery for treating us and our pup so well. Very dog-friendly! read more

Kids friendly, great tasting liqueurs and rye. We left with bottles!!! Great enthusiasm and knowledge from Jonathan

Who doesn't love complimentary tastings?! We visited February 2022 and they had 5 offerings: - Bunker Rye Whiskey $63.01 after taxes - Double-Oak Aged Bunker Rye $87.12 after taxes (Limited Release) - Blackberry Liqueur $37.50 after taxes - Loganberry Liqueur $37.50 after taxes - Oak-Aged Boysenberry Liqueur $49.55 (Limited Release) I'm not a whiskey drinker but I don't say no to free samples. My boyfriend does like whiskey and his current collection includes Lagavulin, Ardbeg, Bowmore, Kilchoman, Balvenie, and Lapgroaig. He bought a bottle of Whidbey Distillery's Double-Oak Aged Bunker Rye after trying it here, so I guess it's good! I did enjoy the liqueurs though, my favorite to least being Oak-Aged Boysenberry, Blackberry, and Loganberry. We ended up bringing the first 2 home, and are currently enjoying the Boysenberry in a Moscow Mule and Cupid's Arrow (recipe on their website). I also want to try it with ice cream and sparkling apple juice. The possibilities are endless! They do sell the little tasting cups for $4.50 each if you want one as a souvenir. I didn't get the name of the gentleman helping us, but he was super nice and had great recommendations for other places to visit on the island. We can't wait to come back! ***** My Star Ratings: 1 Star - Terrible. Just thinking about it makes me angry. 2 Stars - Meh. Unlikely for me to return. 3 Stars - OK. Open to coming back, but wouldn't go out of my way to. 4 Stars - Yummy! Will definitely return if I haven't already. 5 Stars - AMAZING!!! Would plan my day or even a trip around eating here. read more

Whidbey Island Distillery - They offer complimentary tastings of 5 items, and we ended up buying 3 to take home! - Distilleries Near Me - Langley, Washington

Check this place out! Went on Saturday of President's Day Weekend. Had a tasting of two types of Rye and three Berry Liqueurs. All delicious especially the Bunker Rye Limited Edition, and Oak Aged Loganberry. They also had Whidbey Pie samples that paired well with all. Came home with a Logan Berry Pie, and the Rye Limited Edition, and Oak Aged Loganberry. Had both with our pie last night, and the Oak Aged Loganberry in our Mimosas this morning! These folks are knowledgeable and are happy to answer any questions. Not to mention too, they are all really really nice! Be sure to check this place out. You'll be glad you did! read more

Oh WOW where to begin!!!! Greater by a most big grizzle mountain of a man, who was so kind and soft when interacting with our 5 year old daughter. If only that it was enough for a 5-star! Then the pours of what can only be described as the very essence of ripe berries.... Seldom does an experience of tests provoke such strong childhood emotions and memories of picking berries with a long lost love one. Somehow the magician behind these beautiful berry liquors has captured perfection in a bottle with fresh berries, emotionally charged memories and heartfelt love. If there was an option for more than 5-stars this would be the only one I'd ever award so highly. read more

Mike was amazing!! He was great about recommending how to utilize the liquor and the distilling processes. I didn't go for the whiskey but the fruit liquor is beyond amazing. We all bought a bottle of the raspberry liquor, SO AMAZING. I want to put it on everything. You need to stop! read more

I couldn't give this place more stars. From the punchy but warming whiskey to the 4 local fruit liqueurs, you can't go wrong. The liqueurs are sweet but balanced and complex. My personal favorites are the blackberry and the loganberry. Not only do they have a special product, but the lady serving us was helpful and friendly. She offered excellent suggestions on recipes to enjoy the liqueurs as well as helpful local tips. She really was a highlight. One of the distillers was there (both times) and he was also very friendly. No snobbery here. They just want you to love their product. Here's my recipe for a boozed up bramble using loganberry liquor. For two cocktails: 1 ounce lemon juice 3 ounces gin 1 ounce limoncello 1 ounce Whidbey Island Distillery loganberry liqueur Garnish: lemon peel and a Luxardo cherry (or a berry) In a cocktail shaker with ice, add first three ingredients. Pour into rocks glass with crushed ice (crushed is best as it helps with the dilution). Drizzle 1/2 ounce loganberry into each glass. Garnish. Enjoy! read more

Whidbey Island Distillery - Amped Up Loganberry Smash - Distilleries Near Me - Langley, Washington

Complimentary tastings of whiskey, 3 berry liqueurs and a mix of two awaited me after a ferry delay and I was not disappointed. In fact I was quickly greeted, seated and served with a smile and hospitality, even though I walked in close to closing. Patio seating had a handful of tables, service kept my water filled, and everything was delicious. The rye whiskey was one of the smoothest I've ever tasted and the Berry liquors were phenomenal. I could see how they would be good on desserts or added to cocktails. Can't wait to drop by again and bring others. So good! read more

This small distillery is just a little way off of 525 and so worth the stop. Their tasting (one rye whiskey and four berry liqueurs) is free and our guide, Mike, was very informative and helpful. We like a good rye and this one has a nice honey/citrus front to it so we bought a bottle and also got the loganberry liqueur which has a good complex flavor. Check out their website for some fun recipes. read more

What a cute distillery and unique process/set up of making the liquor in store! Everyone should try and get the groupon for the tour and tasting. It was a good time! Tasting the berry liquors were my absolute favorite! What a great spot on whidbey island! read more

Whidbey Island Distillery - Drink menu changes daily - Distilleries Near Me - Langley, Washington

Absolutely amazing liqueurs, well worth their high point accolades and more. We are on Whidbey several times every year and stock up with each visit. Our particular favorite is blackberry, which makes a wickedly delicious Blackberry Whiskey Sour or, for a lighter touch, pour some with a sparkling wine for a Whidbey Royale! read more

Whidbey Island Distillery - When on Whidbey... - Distilleries Near Me - Langley, Washington

First time came here, and very surprised they provided free wine taste while still allowing customers refill any wines, which they would like to try again. Bottle wines are pretty costly that it is ranged from $39-$60 (after taxes). However, I will still recommended this place after visiting here and doing some researches online. I guess their wine are pretty limited in the locations? And they are really good compared to other farms I have visited before. If you are coming from Seattle area during weekend, make sure you depart earlier since there usually a very long ferry line and this place closes at 5pm. read more

Great people with amazing products! We left with several great bottles ! We will return !

I saw the sign!!! And it opened up my eyes- just kidding, but I did see the sign and off we went to explore! We landed in a tasting room with free samples (yes!) of rye whiskey and several liqueurs! Blackberry, raspberry, loganberry, boysenberry (oh my!). The whiskey has a delicious smooth flavor up front and that rye bite on the backend and I seriously wanted to take a bottle home! Weight limits on my checked bag had me saying next time. But- I still got the loganberry and boysenberry liqueurs! Why liqueurs over whiskey? Because boysenberry is a blast from my childhood and I had never had anything like these! I was imagining all the different things I could do with it, laughingly- pour a shot on pancakes! But seriously, I am conjuring a recipe in my head right now- since I am home and TSA checked my luggage and unwrapped one of my bottles from the bubble wrap and somehow it still survived the trip!!! Those liqueurs have a wonderful complexity of flavors! My middle son- he thought it tasted like cough syrup-- but he didn't waste a drop! Good parenting, I know. My youngest will be on Whidbey Island now- and he will be back! I will be back for that whiskey next time I visit! And cheers to the older woman who made it up the stairs and had to rest before buying one of everything! You are my future self!!! Our bartender was delightful too- I regret not getting the young man's name, but we had a great time in the tasting room! read more

Great experience! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. A great stop during our tour around Whidbey Island

Smaller tasting room with a more intimate setting. They find out if your interested in a tasting and a little tour of the distillery. The distillery tour is actually just on the other side of the tasting room separated by a wall. They give you a run down of the operation, why it was start and how they distill their whiskey and liqueurs. With the tasting you get to try the whisky, blackberry, raspberry, loganberry and the boysenberry. I believe in that order. The liqueurs are on the sweet side and the whisky is smooth. The tasting was free today. The guide was fun and witty with a lot of greats ideas for uses of the liqueurs. If you're on Whidbey for the day stop by, we will for sure be back. The cocktail I got with the loganberry liqueur! Super tasty and I'll be making it at home with the bottle we purchased! read more

I've been to a Whidbey Island Distillery a couple of times now and it's been a treat each time. It's tiny -- just a small tasting room -- but the staff are knowledgeable and friendly and the tasting experience is a lot of fun. The berry liqueurs are obviously the star of the show, but their newish rye whiskey is definitely worth a sampling. I recommend getting lunch elsewhere on the island and stopping here afterwards. read more

The tasting was great and everything was delicious. We bought a bottle or rye and logan berry liquor, as they were our favorites! The host was extremely friendly and enjoyable to chat with. We brought our little dog and while he wasn't allowed inside, we were able to sit outside with a heater under a covered area with him. read more

If you are looking for a locally owned, world class, top rated distillery that is committed to exceeding customer expectations, Whidbey Island Distillery should be at or near the top of your stops while on Whidbey. Want to learn about how distilling works? How their unique Still was made? How they got into making amazing award winning fruit liquors and stellar rye whiskey? Yup...this is the place. BTW, the tastings are free, the location (an old bunker) is quaint, cool and fun. Indoors or outdoors, the weather is never an issue. The team is great and are not pretentious and before you even know it, you are all friends looking forward to your next visit. Add some more fun to your trip to Whidbey and let your taste buds smile. Enjoy. I know that our friends and family sure do. read more

This is the place to stop by. They are better than every distillery and winery on the island due to the staff! They make you feel welcome! They are very knowledgeable and of course their liquor is fantastic. Seriously, they are all about customer service. You won't be disappointed. read more

Stopped in for some whiskey and got some raspberry liqueur for my wife. Really good booze for the reasonable price. The tasting room seems like a good environment for groups. Friendly staff/owners(?) as expected on Whidbey. Thanks for doing what you do. read more

This was our second visit to the tasting room and we enjoyed it again just as much - maybe more? The rye is excellent and I particularly enjoyed comparing the liquors. The staff was skilled, friendly, and efficient - even managing the social distancing so that more than one group could taste safely at a time. Well done! read more

Came here on a Friday afternoon with a group of friends. The parking lot had plenty of room for everyone, but I could see how the tasting area might get crowded if there were more than 10-15 people. We did the free tasting, which included their rye/barley whiskey, blackberry liquer, raspberry liquer, loganberry liquer, and boysenberry liquer. My absolute favorite was the blackberry liquer because of its fruit forward flavor and sweetness, but my boyfriend (who actually drinks alcohol, unlike me) really enjoyed their rye. A bottle of any of these costs about $30. The staff were great and it was interesting to learn about the process of distilling alcohol and creating their whiskey and liquers. I didn't feel any pressure to buy anything, but we enjoyed what we tasted enough to purchase a bottle. read more

It was such a friendly and enjoyable experience. Our group enjoyed the tastings and was so pleasantly surprised that they were complimentary. Their whiskey and liquors are fantastic. If you mix the liquor with a hint of citrus with some of the rye whiskey it tastes like and old fashioned. It's worth the stop! read more

The crew at the distillery was a lot of fun and very nice! We were really surprised to find out that they only have one whiskey and the rest of their product is sweet liquers. They were delicious and we had the flavored lemonade with the boysenberry and raspberry liquers. The ambiance was great but was a bit disappointed they did not have more than one whiskey! read more

I really enjoy the bunker tasting room and outside area. A large meadow is right at the tasting area. The staff is great- knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful. They don't charge for the tasting which always puts me in a good mood and their wares are really tasty and interesting. Neither my wife and I are whiskey drinkers but we buy a bottle (of whiskey) every time we're here- that's how much we like it! We like going here just because... and we enjoy talking with the great people who work and own here. read more

This is an awesome business enterprise, their Whiskey is delicious, their customer service will far exceed your highest expectations, and they deliver within the State of Washington. I mangled an online order last week and with a couple of phone calls to the distillery, Mike was able to straighten the whole thing out and I got the order I wanted. Had a similar incident last year and the outcome after chatting with Bev in the office was exactly the same, good cheer and the order was delivered with the items I wanted. Hurry up and order a bottle of their double oaked Special Edition Whiskey for 2020, it is unbelievable, the price point for this years gem is below what a really good top shelf whiskey would be from one of the big conglomerates. If you like Rye this is the one to taste. They create berry Liquers with taste profiles beyond imagining, my wife's favorite is Loganberry, mine is blackberry. read more

The tasting was free and everything was tasty. I ended up with the Raspberry Liquor. Our guide through the tasting was very personable and knowledgeable. Seriously check this place out. You won't be disappointed. read more

Overall excellent experience. Max is a great and knowledgeable host. Tho I am not a whiskey drinker, I bought both a bottle of whiskey (for a friend) and a liqueur. If you are in whidbey, definitely worth checking out! read more

You can't visit Whidbey Island without visiting Whidbey Island Distillery! We LOVE the owners and masters who create their **delicious** berry liqueurs (Loganberry, BlackBerry, raspberry, boysenberry). Their concoctions are so delicious! Our relatives from Greece came to the Island to visit us and were amazed at how delicious the Blackberry liqueur was. (Believe me....it is near impossible to impress a Greek when talking about food and spirits!) In addition to sipping as a liqueur, use them over vanilla ice cream or in desserts, too. In addition to their wonderful berry liqueurs, they also have some very tasty rye whiskey. read more

This is a *MUST* if you're on the Island! Whidbey has a lot of wineries to visit, but this is their only distillery. We've been to almost all of the wineries and I can say that they are all lovely, but Whidbey Island Distillery is one we go back to again and again. This is a small operation where you get a very up close look at the distilling process. It's got a great family vibe and you can feel the enthusiasm from everyone. Their blackberry liquor has been our favorite since we first visited over a year ago and it recently beat their own Loganberry for marks by Beverage Tasting Institute. It's great to support a very local business and I beam with pride when I see their liqueur on shelves in Seattle shops. I recommend this as a 'go out of your way' place to visit if you're on Whidbey. And if you're not in the area, you can buy your own bottle at Total Wines. An absolute must try! read more

Totally worth the stop if you are on island. They are making beautiful berry liquors and a proper whiskey. They distill in batches so small they had to innovate their own stills. An hour very well spent! It is a great place to pick up a unique gift for a beverage-forward friend. read more
