Up North Distillery - Distillery in Post Falls - 846 N Boulder Ct, USA

Their single malt whiskey is single handedly some of the best whiskey I have ever had. Smooth and easy drinking, no unpleasant aftertaste, just the right mix of bitter and sweet. Way way better than your traditional whiskies sold in liqour stores. I don't know what kind of mash they are using or what secret they have but all it took was one sip on the rocks for me to be hooked. I wish I could find this on the east coast where I'm from. Highly recommend stopping and having a cocktail or taking a bottle home like I did. I didn't drink or eat at the establishment, just bought a bottle to take with me.

We pass really good time. Spirit is awsome and drink delicious. Staff is very friendly and professional.

Cool little spot. Only one bartender working and the place was pretty full so we had to wait a few for drinks, which was a big deal to us, but I could see some not happy with the wait. The drinks were well balanced and tasted good. I wouldn’t say it’s a craft cocktail place but it’s pretty close. Friendly bartender who apologized for the wait. You can by bottles whisky to go. I believe they do a small tour of the distillery but we did not do this.

Second time here in a few years. Came with 5 other people, 2 were regulars. Sat outside to watch and listen to the live music. Had to adjust the outside umbrella's as they didn't actually block the sun for any chairs and it was hot. We were told there was no food that evening since the cook left early. We ordered 3 sets of "The gauntlet" which is a 1/2 ounce pour of every distillate they produce, plus 2 cocktails for the ladies with us. Waitress was awesome, drinks were good, music was great, then the owner comes over and starts cussing and yelling at us for adjusting the umbrella. We did it carefully 45 minuets earlier when we first got there and we had not been drinking. He could have done it in a far, far more reasonable way without belittling us, or causing a scene. We will never be back. He lost the sale of at least 3 bottles that evening, and any in the future from us and anyone I talk with in my whiskey club. Good luck with that attitude.

Up North just won best distillery in North Idaho, and for good reason. The owners are crafting truly unique spirits made from honey, apples, malts, and even pine cones. Highly recommend getting the Gauntlet Flight and trying all 9 of their spirits. The owners are very nice people who are passionate about creating great products!

We had a wonderful visit to this distillery. Excellent mead based liquors with great cocktails tucked away in a nice quiet spot. Great service and description of the distilling process.

We absolutely love this place!! We love Hillary & Randy!! They made us feel like family and have great cocktails too!! The bar has a very quaint vibe, and you can't beat the nights they roll open the garage door and have live music!

Very unassuming place when you drive by but wonderfully surprising once inside. Bartender was very friendly and had some great tunes on. Feature a number of spirits and beers from the region. Well worth the stop.
