J. Carver Distillery is located in Waconia, United States on 1320 Mill Ln. J. Carver Distillery is rated 4.9 out of 5 in the category distillery in United States. J. Carver Distillery, located in Waconia, MN is named for famed Minnesota explorer Jonathon Carver. His audacious pioneering spirit is found at the heart of our distillery. We are driven to explore the local bounty of the Minnesota River Valley. Not interested in the production of me-to product, we are committed to collaboration with local farmers and barrel coopers to develop unique spirits of exceptional quality by coaxing forth magic from the cold climate fruits and grains grown nearby. J. Carver is a grain-to-glass distillery that produces noticeably exceptional rye whiskeys, bourbons, brandies, barrel gin, vodkas, gins, and specialty spirits. Our methods intertwine time-honored craftsmanship, modern technology, and a commitment to sustainability. J. Carver Distillery is open to the public on weekends for tours and sampling, with specialty cocktails offered in the cocktail lounge. J. Carver is a first class destination for private events including corporate meetings, board room offsites, client appreciation events, casual gatherings, grooms dinners and family celebrations. The event staff creates and executes perfectly unique and memorable experiences for large and small groups in one of our venues. Events can include specialty cocktail classes, private behind-the-scenes tours of the distillery and barrel house, and team building activities. Food options are plentiful. Cheers!

J. Carver Distillery is my FAVORITE brand of craft spirits, not only because of their rich, smooth, spirits, but after our distillery tour, Ben spent time at our table talking to us about the distillery's history and what it's like to be part of the fabulous team at J. Carver Distillery. I most look forward to talking with Gina, whether it's through social media or at their cozy cocktail room. Her infectious energy embraced me from the moment we met and that's when I knew that this organization was something special. Cheers, J. Carver!

Distinct lack of competence in founders running the business. Zero care for patrons, but incredibly happy to take your money.

This distillery is awesome! My brother and I stopped in for the tour. Since we arrived early, we sat in the cocktail room to enjoy a drink and a cheese and meat tray. The drinks are exceptionally tasty. The food tray was plentiful and complimented our drinks well. The service was beyond fantastic. We felt like we were being fawned over. Our tour was given by the owner. We learned a lot about the business of distilling spirits. I highly recommend checking this place out. We found out that they do make cask strength spirits for off-site sales.

My favorite distillery!!!! The drinks are top notch, and the quality of the liquor they make is unparalleled. I love the vodka and my husband loves the whiskey and gin. I actually never liked gin before I tried theirs. The tours are so fun and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable! It's definitely worth a visit if you are local to Waconia and even if you live in the cities or further out. You'll be glad you made the trip!

Fun afternoon and great cocktails! I knew little to nothing about making spirits and still found it interesting and informative. I even enjoyed tasting it all straight! Bill was super cool and answered all our questions thoroughly. He checked back in with us during the tasting and helped us select flights for our group. Wish MN law allowed for more purchasing on site.
