Southern Tier Distilling is a craft distillery located in Lakewood, New York, that was founded in 2015 as an offshoot of the successful Southern Tier Brewing Company. The brand's identity is a natural extension of its brewery heritage, built on a philosophy of "farm-to-glass" production and a commitment to using locally sourced New York State grains.

The brand's mission is to apply the same passion for craftsmanship and innovation that made its beer famous to the world of spirits. Southern Tier Distilling is known for its experimental and diverse portfolio, which includes not only traditional spirits like bourbon, rye whiskey, and vodka, but also more unique creations such as a hopped whiskey and a popular line of flavored whiskies with decadent flavor profiles like Peanut Butter Cup and S'mores.

Southern Tier Distilling prides itself on a hands-on approach, with all its products distilled and packaged by hand. This dedication to local ingredients and artisanal methods defines the brand's character and has helped it gain a following for its high-quality and distinctive spirits.
