The town of Roxbury was once a center of the Industrial Revolution.

Now, its 19th century train station and cigar factory are home to Mine Hill Distillery — where spirits are distilled in the age-old process - while keeping true to their Connecticut roots.

The 1872 Roxbury train station is undergoing a restoration and will be used as a café and event space. They hope to open later this Fall.

In this week's Road Trip Close to Home, News 12 photojournalist Lori Golias takes us to Roxbury.
