• SPECIAL RELEASES

  To commemorate our "Ginniversary" - we'll have two special new releases that will only be available at the distillery.

  The Orchard Cask Rested Tom Cat features gin aged in cider casks from our nearby friends at Wildbranch Cider, blended with local raw honey from our own hives in neighboring Plainfield, VT for a distinct botanical complexity that evokes the enticing aromas of the Vermont landscape.

  We're also sharing our 3rd rye whiskey release, Phyllis & Her Walk in the Woods: Port Cask. Made from 100% Vermont grains, this bottle is a blend of some of our oldest Hardwick distilled whiskey with some of our favorite barrels made in Montpelier. A final rest in port wine barrels adds enticing layers of black cherry and fig jam to the bold rye spice.

  Both releases will be available at the distillery while supplies last.

• LIVE MUSIC

  We're bringing the party at Gin Lane with live music from 4-8pm!
