What a Fun Tasting!

What a great time! We were visiting friends who live in Fernandina Beach and decided to stop in after seeing the free tasting sign. The bar was packed, but we found an open table. Shannon never missed a beat! She was great with information about the spirits we were tasting and spread lots of jokes at our expense. Way too much fun! We enjoyed a couple of the "cellos". The Bearing Espresso Rum and Shoreline Bourbon were very good. Well worth a stop, and for us a return visit when we next come to Fernandina Beach.

Pit stop

Local distillery with personal touches. Decided to stop in right before heading back home. So glad we did. Young lady really explained the different types of alcohol available and of course you get a tasting. We walked out with 4 bottles. Guess they’re doing something right

Roll out the barrel for a great place to have a party

We rented out the facility for a work party--the staff were so helpful, especially Shannon, and she had good recommendations for catering and even a photographer. The barrel room for the party was way more fun than any conference room. Highly recommend Marlin and Barrell. They went to great length to have the tables set up, a wonderful open bar and they made the party a place our guest really enjoyed.
