Grand Traverse Distillery Tasting Room

Had an awesome experience! Austin and Bowen took such good care of us. Highly recommend the chocolate covered cherry! Nice atmosphere! Very clean establishment!

This distillery had several delicious cocktail options. Hot Cocoa made with their Cocoa Bean vodka. Hot Mulled cider made with their bourbon. Chocolate covered Cherry made with their cherry vodka (which is one of my favorite vodkas). The Barrel Aged Manhattan was really good also.

Harrison was the absolute best. He took us through a tour of flavors and experiences that I would not have otherwise. He was kind and friendly and in great detail he explained the flavors and give great suggestions. We actually came up here for a different restaurant but it was closed due to not having any heat on a snowy night. Harrison truly turn this night around. We traveled from Flint Michigan which is greater than a 4-Hour Drive in the middle of a snowstorm and he made this night worthwhile. We had to go out to grab a bite to eat but we will be back before he closes so we can take the tasting that he suggested. Harrison also educated us that many of these distilled Spirits may be found at Meijer. Thank you Meijer for supporting Michigan distilleries and breweries.

Who was that curly haired blond guy who was incredibly knowledgeable about the spirits at Grand Traverse? He might have been a figment of my imagination as he was entirely too generous with the sampler and gave really great tasting notes. I could only pop in for 15 minutes but it was thoroughly enjoyable and I ended up leaving with 4 (delicious! bottles of whiskey. Really enjoyed the visit , service, and am super happy with my purchase!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE The Grand Traverse line of fine liquor. My sister and I always go with the GT Cherry Whiskey and GT Cherry Vodka. Amazing. The Tasting room offers liquor tasting 4 small half shots for $5) or free when you buy a bottle. Wine tastings are $8. The bar tender was also extremely knowledgeable about each spirit or wine you were tasting. Left with a large bottle of the cherry vodka, great drinking glass, bottle of wine, and a sticker for $65!!
