This is a fun place to visit. Free tasting of all of their locally brewed rums (including the carolina reaper version) plus Oak City Amaretto. On Saturdays, they offer a free tour at 2pm. These guys are passionate about producing a quality product. Mixed drinks are $5 and very good (try the Painkiller). If, like me, you are trying to give up plastic straws, please tell the bartender to skip the straw (unless you end up with a straw).
