Went to visit the Cooperstown Distillery but it turns out they had just closed up. Rory was just closing everything down, but he happily reopened the store special just for us. Gave us a tasting and mini personal tour. The gin was fantastic as was the bourbon. Thank you so much Rory! As an aside: give them a call if showing up closer to 5, as their hours are apparently changing.

I’ve done a few tours and the presentation of the products along with associated items is indeed impressive and worth time to shop. Well displayed, priced and innovative. The bourbon has several notable layers of taste and appeal. Stands well with higher priced brands. Given a choice I will take Cooperstown. Nice to sip and presented well with mixers and bitters. Good job. Don’t overlook the gin. It has merit all its own. I have my favorite gins and this is now in that circle. Well done. Aged rum and excellent vodka are also available. Well crafted and great Stop and enjoy.

Great tour. Very informative. A must see when visiting Cooperstown. The process of distillation from start to finish is explained in great detail. Also great historical information on how bourbon came to be in the United States and how it really changed spirits and tastes across the world. Don’t miss the new location on Main Street too. The beverage exchange will set you up with a great crafted recipe of a cocktail. Not to be missed

This was my favorite place to visit on the brewery. The location is excellent, the owner and distillery guide is knowledgeable and open, and the product is quality. The retail presentation is also pretty great. Was able to try some spirits I normally don’t like because I don’t want a $ 40 bottle investment into something I hate. Wish they’d had chairs or benches for the second half of the tour, since standing in place is a little painful no matter how alert you are.

The distillery was great! The tour was an impromptu one due to the influx of tourists hat weekend so the tour leader was a bit shaken, but she served 5 samples of their spirits and explained ingredients and the process very well. I know nothing about distilling so it was cool for me to learn a high level lesson on it. The tasting bar & store are designed pretty cool, has an old times feel. I loved it here.

I lived in Cooperstown for a year and watched as this place was built and emerged as a business. However, I actually didn’t get a chance to come here until the day I moved out of Cooperstown. I stopped in quick to sample their spirits and I was very pleasantly surprised; the décor is quite nice and the people were very friendly. The spirits were exceptional as well and the bottles they come in are really neat(and baseball-themed). I’m not a huge fan of vodka and never drink it straight, but their vodka was very smooth and could stand on its own without being mixed with anything. The bourbon was very good as well and was better than most bourbons out there. The gin is the real standout here though; it’s spiced perfectly and the flavor of the juniper berries really stands out, unlike some other gins that taste pretty much like vodka. All in all, it’s a very good place and a great addition to the already stellar beverage scene in the Cooperstown area.

The bourbon is very nice. It is similar to buffalo trace but it’s slightly sweeter and even more smooth. It’s a good bourbon for those who prefer sweeter and less burny bourbons. The vodka and gin weren’t bad either. The gin had a fairly strong juniper taste. I recommend getting a box of the bourbon fudge along with your bottle.

Bourbon is good. Hours are not. Plan ahead. They need to be open later so people can stop after dinner. FYI the Unilocal hours were incorrect. Check the website.

I was in Cooperstown for my sons ball game and wanted to visit this local distillery before heading home. Very nice. Friendly woman behind the counter patiently described their various wares. They also allowed me to sample a couple. Really I just wanted a few souvenirs and did pick up a shirt and some glasses… Oh and their premium Vodka in a baseball shape bottle. Vodka was very smooth and the bourbon was top shelf. Looking to try a new bourbon or vodka for sipping or mixing the Cooperstown distillery products are very good.

Arrived on Sunday, only the owner was there. He’s from the Bronx… and built the business himself. He gave us a free tasting of the Vodka, the Bourbon and the Gin. I think the Bourbon wins, but the other guys went for the gin. The Vodka sure gets it for the shape of bottle. Wow! If I had an spare $ 45, I would’ve bought a bottle. The tasting and the tour is free. The booze is $ 45 a bottle, and there are some books and bitters for sale. There’s a tour, if you want one. You’ll learn a lot, but there is only one room to tour. Worth a detour.
