Proud to be one of the few “field‐to‐glass” whiskey producers in the world, Hillrock is also the first U.S. distillery since before Prohibition to floor malt and hand craft whiskey on site from estate‐grown grain.
Hillrock Solera Aged Bourbon is the first American whiskey to be aged in the centuries-old Solera method used traditionally to create exceptional Sherries, Ports, Madeiras, and Cognacs.
The Hillrock Distillery, Malt House, Granary and Barrel Houses are located at the center of the estate surrounded by our rolling grain fields. Integrated into the landscape, the traditional barn structures convey a simple, timeless elegance.
Crowned by a fine 1806 Georgian house built by a successful grain merchant and Revolutionary War Captain and meticulously restored to its original beauty, Hillrock Distillery overlooks our rolling barley fields and the distant Berkshire Mountains.
Hillrock Single Malt is handcrafted in small batches from naturally grown Hillrock estate barley, which has been traditionally floor malted on-site in the first new malthouse built at a USA distillery since Prohibition.
Hillrock Double Cask Rye is a unique American whiskey, handcrafted in small batches from rye grain, which has been naturally grown, milled, small batch pot distilled, aged, and bottled by hand all on our Hudson Valley Estate.
Hillrock Estate Distillery is located in the heart of the historic Hudson Valley two hours north of New York overlooking rolling hills and the distant Berkshire Mountains. Prime farmland, crystal clear water, favorable climate and a rich local history of fine spirits make a unique terroir which is profoundly expressed in Hillrock’s whiskeys.
Led by owner Jeffrey Baker and renowned Master Distiller David Pickerell, Hillrock’s commitment to quality and the unique local terroir embodies the rich history of artisanal distilling in the Hudson Valley.
Hillrock’s gracious visitor center is integrated with the Distillery and overlooks the Estate’s barley and rye fields. Our tasting room and bar provide our customers with an opportunity to sample and purchase our fine whiskeys at the distillery.
Hillrock’s Malt House provides the essential bridge between the estate’s farming and craft distilling operations and plays a critical role in the alchemy of turning grain into fine whiskey. It is also the first new malthouse to be built at a distillery in the United States since before Prohibition.
