Such an amazing place with a great tour, tasting and amazing staff!
You will tell everybody you know how great this was after you've gone. FIrst off yes its far north but its not actually that far and the drive is very nice and easy. They have a great tour that is worth the small price and usually the master distiller gives the tour and really makes you understand how they make all their great spirits. Very friendly staff out front too with the tasting room and the bar where they mix up to 10-12 great mixed drinks with all their vodkas, gin or whiskey. You get 3 tasting with your tour and they arent little! Then you can buy the mixed drinks for $5 each and they are very good pours if you want. Its just a good family run distillery with good people and great family and community feel. I highly recommend!

Actually one star for the tour...read review!
I love, repeat LOVE Western Son Vodka. That's why I gave it 5 stars. Wifey and I plan date night and start off with the "tour." Outside is cool with a stage and it appears they hold concerts there. (Neighbors must love that) We walk in to building and they ask us if we are here for the tour. YES! We get a few complimentary shots of our choice of flavored vodka. GREAT!! When the bartender pours it....its HOT. Not like boiling hot but straight from a bottle sitting on shelf. YUK!! My favorite "Prickley Pear" was horrible. If I didn't love the flavors prior to going on this tour I would have never ever...ever...ever in 100 years bought or asked for their product by name. The tour guide was cool, the bartender was cool but overall experience in the unair-conditioned warehouse was not for us. Here's my advice.....skip the tour but only and I mean ONLY DRINK WESTERN SON VODKA! The flavors are sooooooooo smooth that after a few mixed drinks...we're drinking it almost straight over ice. Keep up the good work folks!
