Honey House Distillery at Honeyville

A family homestead north of town that bottles local honey and distills spirits from it next door. You can peer into a glass beehive to spot the queen, watch honey being bottled, and work your way along tasting counters of honey wines and award-winning spirits like honey bourbon, botanical gin, and a vodka distilled from honey wine. It is part working farm, part tasting room, all built around bees.

The move: Sip your way through a flight of honey-based spirits and meads side by side, then taste and take home jars of the honey that started it all.

📍 Before you go About 10 miles north of downtown on Highway 550. This is a tasting-and-tour experience rather than a make-your-own class; call ahead (970-247-1474) to confirm tasting hours and whether any guided sessions are running.
