About

Olde Raleigh Distillery is a blend of old and new, just like its signature blended whiskey.

Explore the barrel room and discover the way that everything from wood to weather can transform flavor. Enlighten your knowledge of spirits and learn the basics of distilling and the art of blending. And last, but certainly not least, end your tour with a taste of Olde Raleigh’s newest, unique blended batch.
