Wiltwyck Spirits Company — Kingston's Craft Distillery Honoring Local Agriculture

Tucked away on Greenkill Avenue in Kingston, Wiltwyck Spirits Company represents the new wave of Hudson Valley craft distilling — a farm distillery founded in late 2022 with a clear mission: bring locally produced distilled spirits into the spotlight while honoring New York's agricultural heritage.

A Commitment to Local Ingredients

What sets Wiltwyck apart is their unwavering commitment to sourcing. Every spirit they produce uses 100% New York-sourced ingredients, a decision that directly supports local farmers and strengthens the regional agricultural economy. In an industry where many producers rely on bulk ingredients from elsewhere, Wiltwyck's hyper-local approach ensures freshness, quality, and a true taste of place.

The distillery specializes in small-batch production, allowing them to maintain meticulous control over every step of the process. From grain selection to fermentation to distillation, each batch receives careful attention to develop complex flavors that reflect the terroir of the Hudson Valley.

The Tasting Room Experience

Wiltwyck's tasting room at 188 Greenkill Avenue offers visitors more than just a place to sample spirits — it's an experience centered around cocktails, spirits, and the art of flavor. The space provides an opportunity to learn about the distillation process, meet the team behind the spirits, and discover how local grains and botanicals transform into premium vodka, gin, whiskey, and seasonal specialties.

The tasting room is open Wednesday through Sunday (hours vary seasonally), and the friendly staff guides visitors through flights and cocktail tastings that showcase the versatility of their spirits. Whether you're a whiskey aficionado or a gin enthusiast, there's something to discover in their lineup.

Community and Collaboration

Wiltwyck has quickly become part of Kingston's vibrant food and beverage scene, collaborating with local restaurants, bars, and event venues. Their spirits appear on cocktail menus throughout the region, and the distillery regularly participates in community events and farmers markets.

The name "Wiltwyck" itself honors Kingston's Dutch heritage — it was the original name of the settlement founded in 1653. This connection to local history reflects the distillery's broader commitment to place and community.
