Kick Axe Throwing
So, Kick Axe Throwing of Washington DC is a great place to begin a distillery tour, but not a great place to end one. Drunken axe throwing is not advised on this tour. The throwing studio is located at 1401 Okie Street, suite 102.
If you ever wanted to learn how to throw an axe, the Kick Axe Throwing Axe Pros can teach you the basics in about 10 minutes and then let you safely compete in some fun games against your friends.
It’s a great place to hang out and even offers food while you throw your axe and drinks for after. Give it a try! Then come back out here and head west toward Fenwick Street. Have fun!

Republic Restoratives Distillery and Craft Cocktail Bar
Yay! Our first distillery stop! Republic Restoratives Distillery and Craft Cocktail Bar is the largest crowd-funded, female-owned distillery in U.S. history? So there ya go. Childhood friends, Pia Carusone and Rachel Gardner left their political careers and started an Indiegogo campaign in order to raise money for their fledgling distillery. This fundraising effort allowed them to open their doors in May of 2016, on Kentucky Derby Day, which seems fitting. Call me crazy, but I bet mint juleps were on the menu that day.
And it’s possible they used their signature rye whiskey in those juleps: the controversial Rodham Rye, which they say is a tribute to all the women whose shoulders they stood on to get where they are.

Besides their rye, Republic Restoratives offers a small-batch bourbon, apple brandy and vodka variety. They also provide recipes along with step-by-step instructions on their website: republicrestoratives.com. So, if you’re a fan of muddling, then stock up on some bitters, grab a bottle or two of their signature spirits, and start tending bar! Well, your own bar. I’m thinking they won’t just let you start tending theirs. But they will allow you to sit and have a cocktail in their Ivy Room: airy and trendy with large garage doors that open all the way up on nice days.

Tours are offered on Saturdays and Sundays on a first-come, first-served basis, and are limited to 25 guests. Check the calendar on the Republic Restoratives website under “visit us” before arriving, since tours can be canceled for private events. It pays to do a bit of research first before you and your closest 25 friends just decide to show up. You can arrange a private tour outside of their standard times, however. So if you’re interested in scheduling say, your next family reunion, which may be a good idea to drink heavily when interacting with family members (just saying). Just be sure and register beforehand on their website.

Our next stop is a really fun one. But I need to warn you about something. You have to walk past a seafood warehouse to get to it and the smell is… how do I put it… a little bit fishy. Ok a lot fishy. But it is worth it! New Columbia Distillers/Green Hat Gin has free tastings and their gin is amazing. So when you are ready, plug your nose and head south on Fenwick St away from New York Ave and toward the fishy smell. Our destination is just past Gallaudet St on your right.
