Good tour wish there was product available. - The tour was very good and the tasting interesting.
There were only two of the products available to purchase after the tour at the distillery. We were told there would be product available at the local ABC Store, but that was not the case.
Thanks for having us!

Great activity with friends - We really enjoyed out visit to Copper Barrel Distillery. We were pleasantly surprised by the fruity Moonshie options (Blueberry & Cherry) as well as the frozen drink sample..We also enjoyed our informative tour. The owner happened to be there & our guys had a lot of questions for him..Copper Barrell has purchased the BBQ place next door which is where we ate. We all enjoyed the food very much. I got the brisket tacos - Yum! 3 BBQ sauces on table to choose from (1 vinegar & 2 non vinegar).. Others in our group got BBQ plates or sandwiches. Very reasoably priced also. Thanks!
