Love this place and their new location is awesome. They have a lot of both regular distilled spirits such as vodka, rum, whiskey and gin (ok thats kinda flavored), but where they really stand out is the flavored stuff. Theyre very well known for their sweet tea vodka (original) and whiskey, but our favorites of the day was the lemonade vodka and pecan/chocolate flavored moonshine. I also really liked their blended whiskey. They have a great tasting area and sell some unique cocktails if youre interested. Finally they have an enormous outside seating area and event area with nice stage. Oh yeah cant forget they have Popcorn Suttons still for anyone that watches the moonshiners.
The tasting was fun and prices were awesome! Highly recommend folks to do the tasting. Don’t be afraid to ask to try other flavors. Probably never would have come if I never met the brother of the owner, wife and I are happy we took his advice to check it out! Stop by this distillery, you will enjoy it!
Firefly is a unique and hidden gem! The building is gorgeous, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the land is beautiful and large enough for concerts, weddings, and simply a great place to spend some time. The gift shop has plenty of quality items to choose from. They provide a self-guided tour. Their pricing is quite reasonable. We wished we had known about them, but it was a great way to end our trip. We will definitely return when we are back in this area.
Very beautiful and for the price, completely worth it! I love that it is a family owned business. The self tour was great, but the tasting of the alcohol completely tops it off! The alcohol was amazing! So delicious and so amazing and I love that there were different favors, different liquors. Definitely random visiting!
We randomly chose this distillery and were not disappointed. Everyone was super nice and accommodating. Very knowledgeable and fun. I’m from out of state and will definitely recommend the Firefly Distillery to anyone traveling there. Forgot to mention, the products were delicious!!!
We had a great time here! The taste tour was great, the guides had great energy and we thoroughly enjoyed each tasting. My husband and I would choose alternate tastings so we were able to taste everything. Our favorites were of course the lemonade also the sweet tea vodka. The food truck was expensive (imo) but to be honest it was probably the best street taco Ive ever had! We left with cupboard full of bottles 😊
Tasting flight was a wonderful start($10 that includes 7 samples and a logo shot glass). Then an $8 cocktail from the bar on the opposite side of the tasting room. Got to walk around with my drink while we looked around the gift shop and watched a bit of the employees putting the finishing touches on bottles of the lemonade vodka. Bought 2 bottles of their Java Rum(coffee flavored of course and $20 each) which I cant wait to make a White Russian out of or just on the rocks! Such a wonderful place with the most friendly staff! I would give them more stars if I could!
Awesome place, go during an event when its busy and youll truly enjoy yourself. The tastings are inexpensive and you get to kind of choose what you want to taste test. If you like liquor def a place to check out.
I was here with a bachelorette party. We did the tasting, which was informative, entertaining, and tasty. The cocktails are great, and the environment is fun. Also great to purchase bottles that cant typically be purchased elsewhere (like the Firefly lemonade--so good!).
Firefly is one of my absolute favorite places to visit. The property is absolutely stunning, the facilities are clean and they have the best mixed drinks in town.
We had such a great experience during this tasting ! Everything was absolutely delicious and we are bummed we only had carry-ons because we wanted to take a lot home with us! Erin and Kaye were so nice in the giftshop and helped us with any questions we had. I would love to go back!
We decided at the last minute to go. We only had to wait 30 minutes for a tasting. Unfortunately they put us in an area where there was a very loud group next to us that was not doing a tasting and it was very hard to hear the person giving us the information. Enjoyed the many options. They also had a nice bar with drink specials. I recommend going here for a tasting if you can get a quieter area.
Stopped by while leaving Charleston for the day. Great place to visit and the tasting room was an Awesome experience. Our tasting guide Natasha did a great job. The staff at Firefly are very helpful and knowledgeable. A must see if whiskey, bourbon, rum, gin and moonshine are part of your life.
We decided to try this place during our visit in Charleston. So many liquor options.. its hard to choose which was my favorite. Liquor tasting available at $10/per person which includes a really cool sturdy shot glass. Lots of seating available as well as grassy area to lay out on a blanket with friends and family. They are known for their sweet tea vodka so dont miss the chance to try it out as you will not be disappointed! We had a great time!
Great tasting liquor and awesome atmosphere! Beautiful property and building too.
Firefly Distillery is a great concert venue from atmosphere to drinks and service. Staff is very attentive and helpful. Their gift shop that has something for everyone even your four-legged family members. Love their concerts and fresh brewed products.
This was a great experience! While they werent doing the tours of the distillery, they still did the tastings. Im an alcohol aficionado. Ive never had spirits this good. The lemonade vodka and the mix of apple pie and caramel moonshine were my favorites. They also had live music and food trucks. Id definitely recommend this being on the itinerary if youre in the Myrtle Beach or Charleston area.
Great location. Went for Whos Bad, Michael Jackson tribute band. Had safe spaces set up with only groups of 4. Good for and drink options. Clean restrooms.
Beware of going to this venue for their music events. Their website, Facebook and Instagram pages, and posts they make anywhere else, clearly state that a Fully vaccinated Covid 19 vaccination card or Covid 19 test is what is needed to enter their (outdoor) venue. This is untrue. my family and I all had up to date vaccine cards and were not permitted to enter the show on October 1st, because they said the last dose of our vaccine had to be administered at least 14 days before the event-two of us were not vaccinated to their standard. It would have been nice to know that this was their policy before we tried to attend the show and could have gotten a Covid test before showing up, and wasting a few hundred dollars. Ticketmaster is not gonna refund us for something that is entirely Firefly Distilleries fault.They even went as far as to blame the bands for this “last minute rule”..the staff we dealt with were rude and ill informed of what were the “rules”..having 3 different people give you an answer (all of them different) is unacceptable. My family and i are very disappointed and will never attend another event there…if i could give this dump some negative stars, i would
Great time. Enjoyed the tasting. Very nice staff
Such a cool spot. The new location looks amazing and everyone is so nice. Mikell and Sara were amazing in pointing us in the right direction and giving us recommendations. Our bartender Nick was so friendly and helpful. We had a great time doing the tasting and having cocktails. They’re dog friendly too which was a huge plus for us. They had a food truck today when we went which was awesome. Great overall experience.
We had a good time. The tasting is well worth the $10. The drinks are great also. But Google will give you bad directions. I use the Cod Father as the location to get there.
This place was pretty cool. Food truck we ate at there was really good, Zimos Gyro? We did the tasting and they have a lot of good stuff. Definitely worth trying.
This place is beautiful inside and out! There was a lot of planning that went in to this place and it shows. Its such an upgrade from their Wadmalaw location and much nicer now that its in town. Its definitely worth the tour and tasting. They even have event space for rent-- my bestie had her rehearsal dinner here! If you like Firefly, you will want to follow them on Facebook to keep up with the many concerts and festivals they host out here. I went today for the last of their food truck brunch festival and there was plenty of seating, although it seemed everyone was on the lookout for the shaded spots (there are a few sun shades but arrive early to snag a spot under one).
Awesome stop. Great products both alcoholic and non alcoholic.Dont just hit directions button but put in actual address or you will be at a non entry exit. Great employees!
A great place to hangout with friends. Entrace is a little hard to find so keep your eyes open when driving down the road for the gate. Two types of tasting options including liquor and wine. Plenty of places to sit and relax. Come early because the lines get long. There is no real tour of the distillery just tasting rooms. You can walk around the vineyard and check out a variety of farm animals that they have. An interesting place to check out and popular with bridal showers.
Catered picnic. Facility convenient to Charleston. Easily accommodated this group. Weather excellent. Was not much could directly attribute to Firefly.
Highly recommend. Bartender was very helpful. The liquor was so good.
Emily and Kimberly are the absolute best! Thanks for making us feel welcome, suggesting the drinks, and giving an awesome Tasting tour
My wife and I came to Charleston for are birthday weekend. We found this place and we both had a great time. The tasting was great and we bought three bottles on way out.
Firefly Distillery is a must go-to when visiting Charleston! Their land is gorgeous and you are welcome to walk all around on your own! The tasting was fantastic & I loved getting to try such an assortment! Must buy some moonshine (I bought peach!) & the chocolate pecan liquer - AMAZE! The staff is very friendly! I hope to come here every time I go to Charleston!
Great place, very clean large parking lot. The sampling is amazing with the bartender having knowledge of the product and being able to recommend you drinks. We ended up buying 5 bottles and wish we had more. We came all the way from North Georgia and will definitely be coming back.
Amazing outdoor venue for a night of rock n roll!
Came here November 23 with a large group of coworkers and I had an amazing time! The Firefly is amazing distillery with wine, whiskey, and moonshine tastings with food trucks on the premises as well. I paid for the wine and whiskey tastings and it did not disappoint. We were able to keep our tasting glasses which was a plus! I ended up buying 3 bottles (2 Sweet Tea Whiskey and the Blueberry Moonshine) plus a bottle of wine (Symphony). For lunch I ordered the fried shrimp and fish and it was good as well. The weather was nice..drinks and food good. This is definitely a place to add to your list of visits!
Firefly is always a fun time. Live music is fantastic and the staff has always been very friendly and helpful! Food trucks on site and cold drinks!
I love the different flavors of moonshine. Especially the strawberry and apple pie. But just be warned that this is not extremely strong as you think. Theyre 20-30% alcohol/vol. So dont expect anything stronger. They also have moonshine jelly. I havent tasted it yet but Im definitely trying it when I get home. I havent tasted it, but they also have whiskey, bourbon and flavored liqueur for sale. I recommend trying them out.
Great service! Plenty of things to do while here other than drink. Live music was good. Gift shop has a lot of cool items
Awesome Venue! Had a great time!
Very nicely hidden place off road. Clean. Great vendors. And most of all excellent performance 👏
A wonderful scenic local Distillery in the tidelands of Charleston, SC. Located approximately 30 minutes South of West Ashley you can visit Firefly Distillery and enjoy a $6 tasting of several local spirits ranging from the famous Firefly Ice-T to straight up moonshine and bourbon. Outside of The Distillery the grounds are wonderful and offer a small petting zoo, out door kitchen and on our visit local food vendors. They also have local music throughout the year and its highly suggested you visit the website before you visit.On our visit it was surprising to find that the spirits we found best were not available in stores but only at the distillery; it ended up being an expensive visit! I highly suggest that you plan this visit by including the local Winery, Tea Plantation, historical oak tree, and several other local sites to make the most of the trip.
Great potential with lots of space and decent parking available. The venue area needs more bathroom access and better drink and food selections.
I have never been to this place but I live near it. It is awful that the music is so loud, the neighborhood can hear it in their homes, every bass, flute, saxophone, alto,tenor,flute, harmonica, b flat.....😅. It says on the site that its closed today....its wide open with all the noise we can take.. The only good thing about it, at 10pm they have to tone down.
I love Firefly, between the food trucks, the spirits and the hospitality of everyone. One of my absolute favorite places in the Charleston area to visit. I always get an Arnold Palmer with sweet tea whiskey. I very much enjoy the bourbon, and both varieties of whiskey. All the Moonshine has a great taste to it. I recommend the tasting and some drinks to enjoy with friends and family.
Great atmosphere, really nice staff, and fantastic prices. Their new location is very spacious and gives you the feel like you’re inside an aging barrel. Really love coming here every time we’re in town to restock our liquor cabinet with their stuff. Don’t miss coming here whenever you’re in town. Also, doing a tasting is a great family activity!
Excellent staff, friendly and helpful. Fun trip
I had been here 1 year ago and had a wonderful experience, with covid 19 guidelines being enforced. Today none of the covid 19 guidelines were being observed (masks and social distancing) and the employees saw no issue with customers not wearing a mask and the tastings were shoulder to shoulder in the tasting rooms. The company website states face coverings and social distancing are required to enter. Anyone concerned about contracting this devastating illness should not visit at this time. 900+ new cases reported on 4/23/21. Be safe out there!!
Amazing service. Amazing drinks. Amazing place. DEFINITELY would recommend
Awesome place. After the tour and tasting, I wanted a certain cocktail that they weren’t as familiar with making but they got together all the ingredients and were able to make it for me. Turned out to be the best cocktail I’ve ever had. Amazing customer service. Wish we lived in the area so we could go back! We’d be regular customers.
Had a great time at Firefly. Staff was great and drinks were delicious. I will be back 😀
A great time, cant wait to take visitors here!
Really nice place, low key, welcoming staff. Much more than just sweet tea vodka.
Went here with a bachelorette party and had a fabulous time! We had reservations for both tastings which certainly cut down on wait times. The atmosphere is great with a friendly staff, live music and food carts. The liquors were delicious and our pourer Bert the flirt (he earned this nickname) was hilarious. I will have to say that the wines are mediocre but this probably is due to the region they are growing in. But this did not hinder the experience. I would highly recommend this to any friends visiting the Charleston area!
Fantastic experian at Firefly! The location is beautiful and I love the sweet tea vodka.
Fun time. Tasting had real variety. Can tell there is family involvement.Cant wait until we go back to Firefly in the Abaco.
Awesome distillery, gift shop and music venue! A1 class!
Can we say...LIT!! I wasSlizard from all the liquor tastings. The presentation was great and our guides were very energetic, engaging and fun!
Great place, great service, tasty beverages.
Gift shop had great products at reasonable price. Service was great and friendly at tasting. We got six samples for $10. Then we bought 3 bottles each. Location was new and nice, would love to come back for a concert.
I live locally and always wanted to visit this place. The drive to the old location made it impractical. Finally made the time this week and I’m glad I did. We took the sample tour and had a great time. The guide was super friendly and informative. Afterwards we stopped at the on site bar and had a yummy cocktail. I can’t recommend a favorite because I enjoyed everything!
Great place to experience. I only gave it 4 stars due to the food truck event I attended was their first. Still had a good time and enjoyed the atmosphere.
It was my boyfriend and I first time there and it was very fun and different. I will be there in February 13th. I would recommend there to any and everyone.
Love this place!! Cocktails, live music, and fun happening all the time! Even dog friendly woo hoo!
Really cool overall place with great flavored vodka, gin, rum, whiskey.
Amazing little distillery. self guided tours due to covid, but they have an awesome tasting room with $10 tastings. Everyone was super friendly. They have a giant outdoor space and live music every weekend. If you are in Charleston this is worth a quick detour to experience a micro-distillery.
Wide selection of rum, moonshine, vodka,whiskey, gin, and dessert liquors. Great atmoshpere and service.
Great distillery! They have vodka, whiskey, bourbon, gin, rum, and moonshine.
Nice products. The distillery and winery are tastings only, no actually facility tours. Enjoyed sampling the spirits and the walking the scenic grounds, but would have loved to have an actual look at where its produced. The lines were quite long around early afternoon. Friendly and knowledgable staff.
Taste testing is so fun!!!! Shot glass included! Already enjoy Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka. Introduced to Apple Pie Moonshine and Bourbon Ball, among others. Both delicious! Wish the entire Firefly line was more available in the Philly PA area. Hope my next trip to SC will allow me to enjoy the Bourbon Ball again! Nice gift shop! New location from years ago.
I went here today for the first time for a Red Cross blood drive. What an impressive venue! Cant wait to come back and enjoy a concert and some beverages when I build my red cells back up, Haha!
What a fabulous distillery- I did a tasting, they also serve cocktails too. We rescued a bottle of coconut cake rum liqueur- delish! But there were several I loved! The sweet tea bourbon- thats right- bourbon! They also have that original sweet tea vodka too! Their swag shop is extensive! I wish I had time to do the tour (but I do know how its made thanks to other distillery tours). We might be popping back in before our trip is up- its that good!
