Certainly! Here’s a suggested review for you:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"My wife and I had an outstanding experience on the distillery tour, all thanks to our incredible tour guide, Kate. She was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and made the entire tour both educational and fun. The distillery itself was fascinating, with rich history and top-notch facilities, but Kate's passion and expertise truly made the experience unforgettable. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fantastic day out and a deeper appreciation for distilling!"

I came here on a Saturday with my husband and friends and we had a GREAT time! I HIGHLY recommend taking a tour with Kate and learning about the sotol making process. The tasting after learning the difference between the flavor and stages was really yummy. The cocktails were really tasty and creative, I highly recommend a flight. The ONLY drawback was that service was a bit slow. When we arrived there were only a handful of people so I’m not sure what the hold up was, and it almost seemed like we were inconveniencing them. But overall, I loved the cocktails, the tasting, the aesthetic, and the general experience.

Our servers Hayley and Holly were great! We started with the flight and then kept asking "what was that?" as different drinks kept going by us. The sotol was delicious in every single cocktail! I'll definitely be back!Oh! And the food truck is great!!! Wild boar frito pie!

We took the tour with KB who was so fantastic! We learned so much from her and she answered all of our weird questions. Best tour guide I have ever had. The drinks are superb and the food truck is to die for. We will definitely be back next time we are in Austin!

Erin and Nicole were great! They took the time to greet us and gave us the perfect amount of time to look over the menu. Our drinks came out very quickly. The Essentials Flight was delicious. The atmosphere was really cool, and they even had a live singer with such a good voice! 10/10 would visit again!

Holy cow. There isn’t enough I can say about this place! The food is incredible! The staff is helpful. The atmosphere is perfect. And the drinks are unreal.I loved the Paloma and the the blended drink they have, but you can’t beat a Sotol on the rocks.Make sure Erin helps you because she’s the best!

We had such an amazing experience touring the facility with KB! This was our first time trying sotol and the tour was definitely worth it to learn all about it. The tastings were amazing and KB was really friendly and knowledgeable. The aesthetics and service around the whole facility made this one of our favorite stops in hill country. We left with a few bottles and will definitely be back for more!
