Come experience Spirit Works Distillery for yourself! We are a Northern California Distillery, based in Sonoma County, Sebastopol at The Barlow. We provide samples of our spirits or cocktail flights while your host will explain how our female distillers produce our spirits from grain to glass. The Distillery Tasting Room also allows you grab some Spirit Works merchandise, barware, cocktail books and is the landing place for our distillery tours.
Bottle sales (up to 3 bottles per person) are now available in the
tasting room here!
Distillery tours are Friday-Sunday at two times, 2:00 PM and 4:00 PM, and are $20 per person. The tour includes an in-depth look at the path our grain takes through our production facility to become Spirit Works Distillery product. We conclude the tour with a full tasting of our spirits.

We're not the most superstitious bunch here at Spirit Works Distillery, but when we're making sloe gin during Lunantishee Day (May 11th or November 11th), we take precautions. According to Irish folklore, Lunantishee are the mischievous spirits that guard the blackthorn bush which produces sloes. Apparently an...
