The Distillery Story
"Along the scenic shores of New York's Seneca Lake, Finger Lakes Distilling has been crafting award-winning, high-quality spirits since 2008. This pioneering distillery, proudly established as the region’s first standalone distillery, is deeply committed to using locally grown fruits and grains to create their handcrafted products. From small-batch McKenzie Whiskeys to smooth vodkas, aromatic gins, rich brandies, and delectable liqueurs, their selection highlights the best of local ingredients and expert craftsmanship. Finger Lakes Distilling sets itself apart with a meticulous grain-to-glass distillation process, ensuring authenticity and traceability in every bottle. By fostering close relationships with local farmers, they ensure the highest quality raw materials go into their products while supporting the area's agricultural community. Their expansion into Newfield, NY, with a new tasting room and bottling operation, underscores the company’s innovative growth. The Newfield location offers a cozy space to explore their craft cocktails, enjoy tasting flights, and learn through educational events about spirits and distillation. What truly sets them apart is their dedication to community and customer experience. Finger Lakes Distilling invites visitors to share in the craftmanship by touring their barrel houses, enjoying private barrel selections, or simply relaxing with a cocktail in hand. It’s more than just spirits; it’s a celebration of local pride and timeless quality."
