Tour a quirky Ludlow distillery that pairs hand-built stills with hands-on storytelling. This 75-minute visit offers a production walkthrough, tasting of bourbon, rum and hazelnut liqueur, and a chance to take home limited bottles.

Step inside a light-filled warehouse where copper stills gleam and the air carries warm caramel and toasted oak. The tour at Second Sight Spirits unfolds like a good card trick: a quick, confident show that reveals the how as much as the why — how a hand-built still hums, why a hazelnut liqueur tastes like a late-night story, and how two friends used luck and Craigslist to build something distinctly Ludlow.
