Tuthilltown Distillery is located in Gardiner, New York, nestled in the picturesque Hudson Valley. Founded in 2003 by Ralph Erenzo and his partner, the distillery is one of the first in New York state to produce whiskey post-Prohibition. Tuthilltown has gained recognition for its commitment to artisanal production methods and its focus on local ingredients, making it a key player in the revival of American craft distilling. The distillery is currently owned by the spirits company, William Grant & Sons, which has helped to expand its reach and enhance its reputation. With a production capacity that allows for small-batch runs, Tuthilltown utilizes traditional pot stills and innovative techniques to create distinctive whiskies. The distillery specializes in bourbon and rye whiskey, notably the Hudson Baby Bourbon and Hudson Manhattan Rye. The flavor profile of their whiskies is characterized by sweet notes of vanilla and caramel, layered with spices and a hint of peat smoke. The finish is complex, featuring spices, nuts, and a touch of pepper, making each sip a nuanced experience. Tuthilltown welcomes visitors to explore their facility and sample their range of expressions, which typically includes their notable four-year-aged offerings, all crafted with a focus on quality and craftsmanship.
