Discover the Frey Ranch Distillery Tour in Nevada

Located in Fallon, Nevada, the Frey Ranch Distillery Tour offers visitors a true farm-to-glass Distillery Tour experience at one of the most respected estate distilleries in the United States. Set on a working family farm, the tour explores how Frey Ranch grows its own grains, distills them on site, and ages whiskey in Nevada’s high-desert climate. Guests gain rare insight into every step of the whiskey-making process before enjoying a guided tasting.
