TOURS

 
Tours begin at 2:00 pm and occur every hour with the last tour beginning at 7:00 pm. 
Tours are free of charge and are accompanied with a sample of your spirit of choice:
​Jamestown Gin, made from Virginia grains
Yorktown Rum, made from organic molasses
Yorktown GOLD Rum, aged in whiskey barrels  

​Each 8 Shires tour will provide quality education of the colonial distillation process and how it has played a roll throughout history and even still today. Each guest will be able to experience a spirit tasting and tour, free of charge. ​For additional cocktails and entertainment, please stop into our tavern for a game or two. We look forward to welcoming you. 

A tour through 8 Shires Distillery is not just a distillery tour, it’s a trip back in time, a trip through history.

​Our mission at 8 Shires Distillery is to research, document, preserve, teach, and present the history of distillation from the Colonial American Period, the years 1600 – 1775. 

Our spirits are hand-crafted using historic recipes and ingredients of the 18th century.
