Gristmill Distillers is a New York state farm distillery located in Keene, nestled in the Adirondack Mountains, dedicated to crafting traditional spirits from locally-sourced ingredients. They source, mash, and distill locally using spring water from a natural spring near their facility, corn from Adirondack Organic Grains, apples from Rulf’s Orchard, and barrels from U.S. Barrel—the oldest cooperage in the northeast. Their spirits honor Adirondack heritage and the six-million-acre protected wilderness that surrounds them.
Made from apples freshly pressed by Rulf’s Orchard and aged in new American oak barrels, this brandy is crisp, snappy, and slightly dry with a floral nose and hint of cinnamon, named after the Adirondack Park’s 1892 establishment.
