VISIT THE VA NEST
Silverback Distillery has two locations. Our flagship Virginia location opened in August 2014. Nestled at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains and bracketed by the Rockfish River on Route 151, Silverback proudly welcomes local residents, out of state visitors, and international tourists alike to stop by our tasting room to partake in our educational tasting experience.
Due to Virginia law, we are only permitted to serve 6 oz of alcohol to any individual per day. We offer guests a menu of straight pours and mixer cocktail drinks to taste the lineup of spirits we have available. Our signature mixers have been known to drive the most reserved Alphas wild and leave them wanting more.
We are pet-friendly!
