Why a Limo Tour Is the Right Move
- Tasting at four+ distilleries means responsible transport is non-negotiable
- Distilleries don't have great parking, Koval's lot is tiny; FEW is in downtown Evanston
- Lunch and dinner stops without re-parking
- Group photos at every stop
- Climate control for the bottles you buy. We keep them in the back, not in a hot trunk
