Curious for more than a taste?
Join Master Blender Jesse Parker for a peek behind the curtain at how our remarkable whiskey is created. You’ll get to know Jesse, learn about the origins of Doc’s, explore some of the rarely seen techniques used in our process, and discover the art and science behind what goes into our bottles.
Tours last about one hour, and include a guided tasting of 4 whiskeys.
Participants must be 21+.
Pets (including service animals) are not allowed on tours due to food safety restrictions.
Tours are available for individuals, small groups, and larger private groups (depending on staff availability.) Just send us an email to hello@docswhiskey.com and let us know what you have in mind.
