Crooked Creek Distillery

Very little bar, with a range of different liquors. We grabbed a honey bourbon bottle for my brother for Christmas.I grabbed a hot chocolate vodka to walk around the shops. Lots of people were grabbing different mules. The bartender was working hard serving everyone.

We stopped at this small store front while visiting some places on the Laurel Highlands Pour Tour list. I think they served drinks but I am not 100% sure. There were tables with people sitting around but I am not sure why.When you walk in to the left are their liquors. We looked them over while waiting to meet the bartender to do some sampling. I was very pleased we were able to sample. I tried the blackberry lavender, strawberry lemonade, and the pumpkin pie. After my pumpkin pie sampling the barkeep gave me another topped with almond milk. Delicious! Tasted like the kind of dessert I would go in for seconds on.We decided to go with the Blackberry Lavender as we have another local distilleries Pumpkin Pie whiskey already at home. The bartender told us it was their best seller and I could see why. I would definitely stop in again if in the area.

This place has been on my bucket list to adventure out to in West Newton. However I didn't know that they had one in Irwin. We were in the area collecting stickers for the Laurel Highlands Pour Tour. This wasn't on our list.We stopped in and did some sampling. Everything I tried was amazing. I tried the pumpkin and said this is good. She said wait until you try this, the owner added almond milk, omg it was incredible. The Holiday spice is spicy and good, she recommended mixing with a cranberry wine. I liked the bourbon single malt, the other one wasn't available to try. I tried the Honey Bourbon, talk about a change. It was incredible and I ended up going home and drinking some of it.Overall great staff, great list of whiskeys available. I recommend trying this place out. Can't wait to visit the other location and try what I didn't try here.

We planned to visit the West Newton Crooked Creek Distillery location but ended up in Irwin doing some shopping. Some of our friends had recently gone to Crooked Creek and talked about how awesome it was, so we decided to make time to go. When visiting, our service was great and we enjoyed everything we tried. It was nice that some of the tasting pours were the spirits by themselves, and other were like mini mixed drinks. The Blackberry Lavender Lemonade Moonshine was great on its own and even better mixed with lemonade. The Pumpkin Pie and Apple Pie Moonshines were also very good. My personal favorite out of everything we tried was the Pumpkin Pie with almond milk. It was like a dessert and is definitely an amazing fall drink.We ended up purchasing three bottles of moonshine since we could not decide on just on one.If you are doing the Laurel Highlands Pour Tour, two other places on it are in walking distance: Laurel Highlands Meadery and New Crescent Brewing.

What a little gem! It is evident the moment you walk in the door crooked creek distillery is the real deal! Such a warm and inviting feel, that the staff enhance even more! Friendly, knowledgeable but more importantly the passion and love for their product line! Every trip to Irwin should start or end here! I highly recommend the pineapple habanero moonshine and the Bloody Mary mix is so on point!!!
