You can sample some of the signature cocktails and learn about the distilling process from the experts. The distillery also features a gift shop where you can purchase souvenirs and bottles of the spirits.
The last stop of the tour is the Angel Oak tree, a 400-year-old live oak located on John's Island. The Angel Oak is one of the most beautiful and majestic trees in the world, with a massive trunk and sprawling branches that provide a shady respite from the hot Charleston sun. You can take a stroll around the park and marvel at the natural wonder, which is believed to be one of the oldest living things in the country.
