HANDCRAFTED SPIRITS

Cooperstown Distillery is the first and only distillery in beautiful Otsego County, home to the iconic National Baseball Hall of Fame Museum. Drawing from the picturesque beauty and celebrated history of the region, it should come as no surprise that our truly unique, handcrafted spirits are inspired by the literature of James Fenimore Cooper, the beautiful crystal clear waters of our Lake ‘Glimmerglass’ and Cooperstown’s world famous reputation for honoring excellence. Worthy of carrying the distinguished Cooperstown name, our spirits are made to meet the highest of standards and are now recognized for being among the nation’s very best.
