Great tour before drinks and dinner. Highly recommended. Richard does a great job blending the history of the distillery’s namesake, Tom Pendergast, with local info and a summary of how they distill their fine spirits. Checkout the quieter speakeasy downstairs, you’ll be glad you did.

Elise at Toms Town was amazing. She gave a great tour and the tasting with her was so fun. She has us addicted to the double oak Bourbon! If you do not drink bourbon, you can still enjoy the tour. Loved looking around and enjoyed the video of all the history that this distillery has. The food was an added bonus!

Found this place online and was looking for something that had some aesthetic and this place knocked it out of the park. We booked the distillery tour and tasting which lasted about an hour. When we arrived at close to 6:30 (our tour time) and they began checking us in they indicated our time slot had actually been at 2:30 and we missed it. On the ticket it had both 6:30 and 2:30 and the reminder popping up on my phone showed 6:30. They stated they had a new booking system they were using and there were some kinks to work out. They were very gracious and let us check-in and join the tour and had a table ready for us with little notice. I will definitely book again for the tour and for the speakeasy that will be changing each quarter. If you book direct on their website or thru TripAdvisor’s app, I would double check your ticket to avoid confusion when going to check-in especially if you have a large group going. My party only had 3 in it so it was easy to accommodate a last second add-on.

Did the tour today and had such a great experience! Tony was our tour guide and he was so knowledgeable and put on a great tour and tasting. We even brought my sister who was only 20 and couldn’t do the tasting but she really enjoyed learning about everything! Such a nice time!

Our tour guide Tony was awesome. I would highly recommend this place. My husband didn't know what we were doing until we arrived. He was like REALLY we're learning how to make beer? (Being sarcastic) but ended up being the most engaged person. He was answering questions asking questions and ended up buying 2 bottles and a cup at the end. Tony was definitely a big part if that, had jokes kept you interested hes amazing and definitely loves his job and this company. Thanks for a great start of our night.

The tour was full of interesting facts about both the art of making spirits and the town of Kansas City. Our tour guide, Tony, was an obvious fan and expert of the process and the products they create at Tom’s Town. He told the story of the craftsmanship that goes into their work! Great tour!
