Historie

Saint Lawrence Spirits Distillery was founded in 2015 by father-and-son distillers Jody & Bill Garrett. The family is owned and operated by them. They are proud of their award-winning spirits and their diverse product line, including Vodka, Gin, Absinthe, Whisky and Bourbon. They are the first distillery to use St. Lawrence River water to dilute all of their spirits, which gives The Spirit Of The River In Every Bottle®. Saint Lawrence Spirits is family-owned and operated, and their distillers are passionate about delivering high-quality small-batch spirits with local roots, starting at Lucky Star Ranch. 100% of the grains used for Moonshine, Whisky, and Bourbon come from New York State farms, 90% from right here in Jefferson County. They won New York State Distillery of the Year for 2019, 2020 and 2021.

In 2015 Saint Lawrence Spirits was founded by Jody & Bill Garrett and became family-owned and operated. The distillery houses a 500-gallon Vendome Copper Pot Still with a maximum capacity of 75,000 proof gallons annually. In addition, there are eight fermenters and a mash cooker, as well as an in-house bottling and packaging system. In 2018 a new vodka column was installed to meet the growing demand for clear spirits.
