grand traverse distillery

Stopped by this afternoon hoping for a tour and a tasting. We were disappointed on both counts. Very small facility and the young lady there couldn't even welcome us. We wondered around for 5 minutes or so and left disappointed. I have tried their bourbon before, and liked it, but this sadly wasn't worth the stop.

Stopped by while in Traverse City. I am not an alcohol fan, but my husband enjoys finding new drinks to try when we go on vacation. He sampled several of their selections and ended up going home with some cherry whisky. He thought their products were very good!

Thanks for taking time to review your stop and coming in for a tour. I hope you enjoy your purchases at home and I will copy your kind comments to Kyle! We do get a large number of couples that come in where one or the other has a stronger interest in spirits. Thanks for coming in with him! See you again soon.cheersKent

Thanks for taking time to write a review! We love the summer drink you mentioned,our cherry vodka and a tart lemonade. Nothing like it on a hot day. Glad you also enjoyed the tour, we love to show off the distillery to customers. Grain to bottle is what we do here at GTDCheersKent

Thanks from coming in to visit and stopping in two of our tasting room! Glad to hear you enjoyed our vodkas and gin. We are proud to use locally grown rye, wheat and corn to mash and distill them. Come back soon and I am sure we will new spirits for you to try.CheersKent

Thanks for stopping in at the distillery and the very kind words about the tour and our whiskey! We enjoy showing customers how we make our whiskey, grain to bottle and all here at GTD. Come back soon because we have two new whiskey products that will be offered soon. A bottled in bond cask strength whiskey will be the first and before the end of the year.CheersKent

You made my day! Looking forward to opening the new Grand Rapids tasting room soon. Will offer the same whiskey products you enjoyed here in TC.CheersKent

Glad you enjoyed your stop at the distillery. We love getting folks coming in who come to the area to enjoy wine. GTD offers a change from wineries in that we offer spirits produced with local grains.Cheers and come back again!Kent

Thanks for taking time to write a review and we are happy you enjoyed your tour in the production area. We have great people working here and they enjoy showing off the place. Please come back againcheersKent

Hello and thanks for making our distillery a regular stop when your in the TC area! Appreciate your taking time to write up your recent visit and the kind comments. We are very close to having a location in downtown Grand Rapids to open a new tasting room. Hoping to be open late Fall.CheersKent

Thanks Denise for taking time to send a review. We hope to offer more products in the future so stop in the next time your in the area. Wish we had more room to offer tables and chairs but we are having to live with a 400sf tasting room and are making the best of a limited area.cheersKent

Hi PaulaThanks for taking time to write a review and for coming in to see us at the distillery. We enjoy opening up the distillery and showing people what we do and hope they understand the process better.CheersKent

So glad you decided to stop even though you are not big spirits drinkers! We do offer about a dozen spirits made using local grain. Your Cherry Lemonade is easy to make at home also. If you come up with new drinks using the cherry vodka please send us the recipe so we can post it on our web site to share with others. Thanks for coming in!CheersKent

Thanks for stopping in and visiting our distillery as well as taking time to post a review! Glad to see you tried some of our other spirits while in Traverse City and hope someday to have a tasting room closer to the Detroit market place. We can be found in around 1200 accounts around Michigan, if it is not on the shelf just ask the store to carry it for you.CheersKentPS on the web site there are recipes for the cherry vodka as well as other spirits.

Thanks for taking the time to review your visit with us and coming in to visit our distillery. We hope to have new items coming up while distilling the spirits that people know and enjoy. Hope you enjoy Peninsula Gin and Ole George. It will warm up someday, I for one am looking forward to sitting in the sun and enjoying a cocktail using our gin again. Safe trip back to ChicagoCheersKent
