Desert Diamond Distillery

I stopped as I was heading out of town which happened to be just after 11:00am on a Monday. I'm so glad I stopped. Not only was I able to taste some great rums and a unique vodka, I had a great time learning interesting fun facts from their tasting specialist. I spent more time there then anticipated but that just means that it was better than I expected it would be which is a good thing. If I didn't have places to be I would have done a 2nd tasting to sample some of their reserve rums that are said to rival a good whiskey. So, plan a visit. There is a cost for the tasting but I thought it was worth it because of the variety. Plus you get a souvenir shot glass.

They are part of the Harvest Host RV club. Big paved lot out front, gravel in back, lots of room. Nice little craft distillery, their agave rum is a nice sipper.

Ok the place I am trying to review is Cantrello's Pizza. I was very impressed by the food and service. Our server, Gabby was a delight .This place is directly adjacent to the Distillery. Only downside is size.

John and his wife were AMAZING! All the spirits were great, but listening to john share his passion was the best part of the experience. My wife does not care for rum or bourbon at all and found a few she liked. Highly recommended. We will be back for the tour and to see what new stuff they have come up with in June. Can't wait. Thank you, John!

Unbelievable! This place truly exceeded our expectations. Don't be put off by the location at the airport. It is worth the drive out. We are staying on the property as Harvest Host members and enjoyed an amazing lunch in one of the historic train cars. The retail store and bar are upscale and filled with delightful gift items and products. Spent a little time chatting with the owner and found out they have been in this location since 2009 and are the oldest distillery still in business in AZ. A true must see when you are in the Kingman area!

Our Friday afternoon stop was outstanding. As Harvesthost members, we were allowed to stay on distillery grounds for free and park our 36 foot RV and the Jeep in their parking lot. We took advantage of their hospitality and made a reservation to eat the delicious sandwiches in the old train car. Later in the afternoon we sampled their outstanding Rum flights while the owner John gave us a detailed description of his creations. Overall a super nice experience, plenty of room to accommodate our rig, grounds and facility are clean, people are welcoming and the spirits are wonderful ! Thank you for your hospitality Desert Diamond Distillery.
