Review by Ashley Longo

This tour was really cool. A lot of really interesting facts about the building and distillery. And our tour guide Dawn was awesome and really funny. And I was really surprised at how smooth and delicious their liquors were. My husband and I left with a couple of bottles and we love supporting local businesses and will continue to support this one. We will definitely be back! I didn’t like vodka until today, so now I will only buy St. Augustine vodka 😁

Where to start?! First and foremost, it's a free tour with a free booze tasting. Out the gate, you're winning. Then, you find out it's truly a craft distillery. Local ingredients, local impact, truly farm to still to farm loop. "Cute hipster gimmick" you think. Then you taste the bourbon. It rivals anything from Buffalo Trace, High West, Jefferson's....except you saw it bottled. And you smelled the mash. And you spoke to the staff and $200 worth of liquor later you wished you could move here. This place is amazing. I love them and the restaurant atop this paradise and if they were a person I'd be happily married to them always.

Did the tour, sampled all the things, was totally blown away by it all. These guys have it all together and are exemplary. Small town, huge vision - outstanding product. There’s a lot of history in this building (and of course the town) and they’re eager to tell you about it. Their product is reflective and progressive. And if I could sound any snootier I would but I also want everyone with even an inkling of interest to go. It’s great. Get in there. 🤘🏼

Attended this tour and it was amazing. Was lucky to have gotten our tour guide because he was extremely knowledgeable and welcoming! It was a great combination of a variety of tastings and fun facts on the history of the Distillery. I was so impressed with their products that, I purchased several items seen in the picture below. The ending of the tour is the reason I did not give this Distillery a five star rating. While my transaction was being processed one of the cashiers, who was not even processing my items was very rude to me. If the tour wasn’t as great as it was, that incident would have discouraged me from recommending this place.

80% of thier proceeds go back to the local community. The tour is free! FREE ALCOHOL. Our tour guide Alan was fantastic. The history of the distillery is very cool...hint hint...wink wink. A MUST when visiting St. Augustine. I promise you won't regret it. 10/10

What is a Dispensary?

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.

At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.

What is the difference between a medical or recreational dispensary?

In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
