A great small tour of a locally distillery. Our guide, Chris, was very knowledgeable on the history of distilling and local history that helped shape the community they operate in. Not only did we get to tour the distillery but the tasting flight at the end of the tour is in their speakeasy that they just opened as part of their business. The venue is small but felt very welcoming and was a great stop for our vacation
Thank you so much, Caitlin! We’re so excited to hear that our distillery tour was a great stop on your vacation! Chris will be thrilled to know you enjoyed his knowledge of distilling history and the local stories that helped shape our community. We’re also glad you loved ending the experience with a tasting flight in our new speakeasy — it’s been such an exciting addition for us, and we’re happy it made your visit even more memorable. Thank you for spending part of your trip with us, and we hope to welcome you back next time you’re in St. Pete!
We brought in a private group of 15 to tour the St. Petersburg Distillery on their new moonshine experience, finishing in the absolutely gorgeous new speakeasy. I cannot rate the entire team higher, Kiley greeted us and looked after every member of the group. Such a unique experience with plenty of beautifully tasting spirits- the PB&J martini is a must, the best cocktail i l have EVER had! This is a must do for anyone in the area! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for the incredible 5-star review! We’re thrilled your private group had such a great time on the new moonshine experience and enjoyed finishing in the speakeasy. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Kiley and the team — they’ll be so happy to know everyone felt well taken care of. We’re also glad the spirits and cocktails were a hit, especially the PB&J martini! Thank you for choosing St. Petersburg Distillery for your group experience and for the amazing recommendation. We hope to welcome you all back again soon!
We had an amazing time, I booked the earliest available tour, but neglected to notice that I had selected the wrong date and they still accommodated me. Justin in particular was an incredible tour guide and went above and beyond, making us comfortable and answering any and all of our questions about the brewery. The hospitality from everyone was top-tier and we will definitely be coming back.
Thank you so much, Robert! We’re thrilled to hear you had a 10 out of 10 experience with us! We’re always happy to help when we can, and we’re so glad our team was able to accommodate the date mix-up and still make the visit happen. Justin will be pumped to hear your kind words. He truly loves sharing the story, answering questions, and making sure every guest feels comfortable and taken care of. We’re also so grateful you felt the hospitality from the whole team was top-tier — that means everything to us. We can’t wait to welcome you back for another round at St. Petersburg Distillery!
Justin was great. Amazing tour. Beautiful speak easy. Delicious gin
Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review and for sharing your photos! We’re thrilled to hear you had an amazing distillery tour with Justin.

We truly appreciate you visiting with friends and taking the time to share your experience on TripAdvisor. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another tour, another pour, and another Speakeasy stop!
We had such a great time. Justin did an amazing job! And the spirits are like nothing I’ve had before. They were very smooth. Would go again and again.

We’ve never tasted a Pina colada like those. We went back a couple days later for more!!! Best unique taste ever! Thanks Justin! We had fun.
Molly, thank you so much! We love hearing that the Piña Coladas made such an impression that you came back for more. That is the kind of “research” we fully support. We’re so glad you had fun with our experiences, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Justin. Thank you for visiting us and for sharing such a fun review — we hope to see you again for another round soon!
This was a great experience and tasting! I like that you started the tour with a drink in hand and got to try their spirits in a cocktail. Justin was very knowledgeable and took his time giving us a tour of the distillery. We got to see the new speakeasy upstairs which was awesome! Will definitely be back.
Thank you, Samantha! We’re so glad you enjoyed the St. Petersburg Distillery Tour and Tasting Experience. Starting with a cocktail is one of our favorite ways to kick things off, and we’re happy you enjoyed getting to try our spirits that way. We’ll be sure to pass your kind words along to Justin. It’s great to hear you loved seeing the new speakeasy upstairs, too. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
How to guide Chris was excellent! The distillery is really amazing and not something you figured would be in St. Petersburg. They have a delightful speakeasy as well where they do the tastings and their products are delicious and varied. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone else to enjoy a great spirit of Saint Petersburg

The St. Petersburg Distillery is so much fun. Tress was our tour guide and she was excellent! She was entertaining, knowledgeable, and just made the whole experience special for us, especially the tasting part. The distillery is spotless and the additional spaces are beautifully decorated and welcoming. I can only highly recommend a tour of the distillery and of course the spirits are great too!
