California Distilleries
You probably already know that California is going to be one of the hot spots for distilling – and you would certainly be right! Something to keep in mind, though, is that California is a massive state. This means that visiting all of the California distilleries is going to be a chore that you’ll spread out over a long stretch of time. However, it will certainly be well worth the effort!
The Golden State has seen a massive boom in the establishment and opening of California distilleries – this is due to a law that was passed in 2016 that finally allowed distilleries to sell bottles straight to consumers that visit their location.
As you can see by our California distilleries page, there are more than 150 distilleries in California. This means that if you want to check all of California’s distilleries off your list, you’re going to be busy for a while. However, that time will be well-spent. The distillers in California are passionate, knowledgeable, and incredibly dedicated to their craft.
Here at Distillery Nearby, we’ve listed all of these California distilleries in hopes that you’ll be able to find the ones you want to visit. You’ll see that there are countless distilleries all over the state, making it easy to plan trips that stop at other interesting sites during your distillery tours. This massive pool of locations also means that you’ll find pre-planned distillery tours galore in California. Simply pick one that looks fun to you and go!
California distilleries make The Golden State a distillery enthusiast’s dream! If you’re looking for a state to spend lots and lots of time in, California is certainly the way to go. And, if you only think you’ll be able to visit one or two California distilleries, we highly recommend Jewell Distillery in Blue Lake and Gold River Distillery in Rancho Cordova.
