About

We are producers and purveyors of McKenzie Whiskey. We are also a New York State Farm Distillery, which means that we’re a small operation making a handcrafted product. We use locally grown fruits and grains to make high quality, handcrafted spirits. We’re able to devote all our attention to everything we make; we don’t take any shortcuts. Our flavored vodkas and liqueurs are made in the traditional manner, by soaking real fruits in the spirit. We don’t add extracts or synthetic flavoring to speed up the process. Our whiskies rest in oak barrels for as long as they need to, until they mature into the rich aged spirit we offer with pride. Although the distillery is young, our vision is built on a foundation of tradition. Keeping with our traditional vision, we believe in minimizing waste and using everything. Spent grains from fermentation are used by local farmers as animal feed. The oak floors of our distillery are reclaimed siding from a tobacco barn in Kentucky, and the wood bordering our tasting bar also used to be part of a local barn.
