The St. Augustine Distillery was made of a group of locals that shared a dream to bring to their small community to the large national movement of distilling super premium spirits. With the availability of many products grown locally, they knew if they could bring some of the very best distilling experts, they could develop some of the finest spirits.
St. Augustine Distillery offers a free tour of their facility to locals and tourists alike, to watch as they mix, mash, cook, and distill small batches of vodka, rum, gin, and whiskey, in their new historically renovated ice manufacturer plant. Guests learn the history of distilling in Florida, view products that are being made and then enjoy samples of their small batch spirits in their tasting room. With no charge and tours every 30 minutes there is room for everyone.
Children are welcome to the tours, but will not be able to sample any alcoholic samples at the end of the tour. The distillery honors the admission of service animals, but asks you to leave all other animals at home. With first come first serve tours they advise coming 10-15 minutes in advance to the desired tour time.
