    Duane was great! We had such a great time and the food and whiskey pairing was outstanding!! My husband has a severe banana allergy and Duane spared no expense in fixing him something without banana. We would 100% attend this again.

    The visit was an amazing. Learned so much and our guide was very knowledgeable. Will advise anyone to do the tour not only whiskey drinkers. It is wel worth your time learning about not just how whiskey is made but also how innovative the company are.
