Had a very informative tour by Anna, who was great and a relative of the distiller. You can't beat learning firsthand about a family business. Enjoyed everything about it. Co-owner George made me a mean cocktail--Honky Tonk Outlaw. Try it...you'll like it!

We did the $10.00 tour and tasting with another couple. None of us had any experience with Moonshine. The tour was educational and fun. At the end of the tour we tasted 6 different moonshine flavors. The favorite among our group with half blueberry moonshine with half lemonade. - It tasted like a sunny summer afternoon in a glass. We also loved how the building has been re-purposed with so much character and charm. If you haven't visited Copper Barrel, it's definitely a fun night with friends.
