We drive by Dillon's all the time and never stop in. A few weeks ago we emailed them and asked for a tour of the facility. We went on a Saturday afternoon, it was so much fun! The tour was so informative, the staff was knowledgeable and friendly, and the product they make is incredible. We learned about the process of making the spirits and bitters and had a few samples as well. The space is beautifully decorated. Don't miss the opportunity to visit Dillon's.
I love that the gin, vodka & rye is locally distilled! I think this may be a unique business, in an area with tons of wine & beer options. I heard about Dillon's from friends, so being an avid gin lover, I had to check it out!We were not disappointed; the gin is very sharp & citrusy. I look forward to some G & T's on the patio next summer - as well as trying some new recipes from Dillon's website.
Delicious Gin, White Rye, and grape Vodka. We had heard about Dillon's from a family member and had to try. Wish they had their Rose Gin in stock when we visited. When you walk in you enter a modern space with wood accented tasting room with various displays that draw the eye. The only downside was the staff. We were not greeted when we walked in although there was just one other couple paying. We stood around for a short time watching staff walk back and fourth without acknowledging us. It was a very awkward environment with us having to approach staff and ask about the history of the distillery, products, and to taste what they have. We only purchased because the product is delicious. Customer service on this occasion was surprisingly poor.
Staff was great, product was delicious. Vodka and rye were great. The gin is one of the best I've ever had.
OK I like Gin ( my middle name is Tanqueray ) and the addition of flavour makes for an interesting drink! Good to learn how it's distilled too. And as for the service and attention - fine for me - the slightly restrained professional approach - letting you think for yourself - spot on. Made it all the more interesting
Thank you so very much for your visit and the complimentary note about your time here at Dillon's Small Batch Distillers. We welcome you back any time for a tour and tasting of some of our new and seasonal spirits.
My husband and I visited Dillon's with 2 other couples on the August long weekend, just before closing time. The staff was courteous and accommodating, offering us several free tastings of their product and letting us linger over their aromatic bitters. We didn't feel rushed at all even though we were the last customers of the day, and enjoyed poking around their gorgeous, rustic chic store. Ultimately we settled on gin, rose gin (my fave!), and pear eau de vie and between the six of us we bought nearly all of their interesting bitters - a fantastic cocktail enhancement! Most tastings are free, some cost - but those fees seemed to be waived when we purchased.
Wonderful tastings and pairings. Gins are fast moving so you may have to put in an order. We waited two weeks for our gin - well worth it!
This is a cute distillery. Very friendly and informative staff. Samples are free and they offer some whiskies, gin and vodka. They have some very tasty bitters!
We attended a concert there last fall and toured the facility. Love the showroom, outstanding design, love the kitchen, purchased a lot of Christmas gifts. :) the Gin Is awesome, Vodka and Rye. Bottles are really cool, retro in design. Great packaging.
