From walking into this distillery, we were impressed with the comfortable, cozy atmosphere. Our tour was led by an informative, excited tour guide. She explained the history of the building and the man who ran many speak easys in Kansas City during prohibition. The taste testing was organized and fun.

Tour guide was great, forgot his name. Good history of the building and the start. Distilling process and what they do is cool. Liked the tasting and the bar is fun and a good vibe. I highly recommend for the cost.
The best distillery tour, ever!

A terrific way to spend an hour and more. Tom’s bar has such a great, warm vibe. Excellent mixologist, super friendly and talented. The craft cocktails pre-tour were spot-on. Bonus points for a wonderfully decorated Christmas theme. Dick, our guide, was equally fantastic. He gave us a great history lesson on not just the distillery, but of Tom Pendergast’s Kansas City. Heck, we’d vote for him. The tour, the tastings ( Dick really knows the product), the liquor, the ambiance, 10/10. We’ll be back and will send friends. The People Are Thirsty!
Fun Date Night!

Such a fun, immersive, and educational experience! If you like spirits, you’ll get a whole lot of them 😄 Great opportunity to breakup the routine of day to day, learn about some pretty cool group of people, and get to drink, a lot lol. Cheers!

Kate might be the best person I’ve ever met.. born in Kansas City and have been to a lot of tastings.. WOW. This is the best distillery in town, and the best people.
Really enjoyed for the history and experience.

I really enjoyed this tour and tasting when visiting KC for a conference. I’m from Cincinnati, OH and frequent the bourbon trail in KY so I’ve learned a lot about bourbon distilling from those tours, but a couple things that were really unique about Tom’s… they distill many spirits including gin, vodka and bourbon. I know the least about Gin, so it was neat to learn about the standards of Gin and Bourbon distilling side by side. Also the history! Learning about a city’s brewing or distilling history tells a lot about their roots. The video they show before your tasting gave some great context about KC, its spirits and music. That was pretty cool. Tristan was a great tour guide! Of all the spirits, I really liked the Pendergast’s Royal Gold Bourbon, and enjoyed an old Fashioned made with it after the tour in their speakeasy.
