Distilleries

Distilleries are also an integral part of the craft beverage scene in the Finger Lakes region, offering visitors a unique and spirited experience. Just as wineries and breweries showcase their creations, distilleries in the Finger Lakes offer tastings of their handcrafted spirits. From smooth bourbons and whiskies to flavorful gins, vodkas, and fruit brandies, there's a wide variety of spirits to sample and enjoy.

No one makes a better cocktail than the distiller who created the base spirits. Onsite bars and lounges at distilleries offer expertly crafted coctails. Whether you enjoy a bloody mary at Sunday Brunch, something fruity to sip lakeside, or perhaps a stiffer drink, spirits featuring the flavors of the Finger Lakes - local grains, fruits and botanicals will provide an enhancement to your exploration of the region's craft beverage culture.

Bourbon, whiskey, gin, vodka and brandies are often infused with local ingredients to give Finger Lakes spirits a sense of place that sticks in your memory.
