Long Island Spirits is an award-winning microdistillery in Baiting Hollow, New York. Founded in 2007, it is the first craft distillery on Long Island since the 1800s.[1] Surrounded by 5,000 acres of potato farms, Long Island Spirits is a full farm-to-bottle hand craft distillery operation. [2]
Products
LiV Vodka
LiV is crafted using 100% sustainably and locally farmed marcy russet potatoes from Long Island, resulting in a gluten-free spirit. LiV is created using small batch pot and column distillation, bottling only the heart of the distillate.[3]
Sorbetta
Sorbettas are the first potato-based liqueurs to be available in the United States. They are made micro-batches from the spirits of the company's vodka, combined with hand-peeled citrus fruit and locally-grown berries. [4] Long Island Spirits offers five different flavored Sorbetta's; lemon, lime, orange, strawberry, and raspberry.
Pine Barrens Whisky
Pine Barrens is an American single malt whiskey crafted from Blue Point Brewing Company's Old Howling Bastard beer, and is the first to be distilled on Long Island. It is pot-distilled in small batches, then aged in charred American Oak casks. [5]
