Harvest Spirits
Distillery is
located at Golden
Harvest Farms.
The Grout Family expanded their business plan with the production of spirits. Distilled spirits made from apples, and barley for Whiskey are made and bottled here.
I like the archway that
leads visitors....
... to Harvest Spirits
Farm Distillery.
Signs from the farmstand
decorate the entry of
the distillery.
Distilling equipment
sits on the side of
this large room.
Derek & Peter
are bottling
Peter tells us
this is a semi-
automated
system.
Spirits are pumped
into three bottles
at a time.
The bottles are moved to the left, by hand, to the cork dispenser. that is loaded by hand.
The spirits on the
right are crated &
wrapped for
storage.
I love the antique cash register
& the curving staircase beyond.
The Tasting
Counter
Eight spirits are
available to
sip & savor...
Peter provides an overview of the types of spirits we will sample. Eric and I decide to skip Core Vodka, because we bought a bottle at the Troy's Farmers Market in May and love its smooth flavor.
Let the tasting begin....
We tasted Cornelius Applejack, Rare Pear Brandy, Black Raspberry Vodka, Cherry Applejack, Peach Applejack. Core Gin has Lemon Grass and Coriander, which mellows the Juniper Berry flavor. John Henry Whiskey is made with barley. Decisions, decisions....
We bought Peach Applejack
Black Raspberry Vodka
Core Vodka, Cherry Applejack
& a six pack sampler.
Eric and I love the art of small batch distilling. We enjoy sipping tasty liquors and sharing them with friends.
