Made in New York

Crafted in the Catskills, Pollinator Spirits produces small-batch spirits rooted in sustainability, transparency, and thoughtful process. From honey barrel finished rye whiskey to botanical gin and bittersweet amaro, every bottle reflects a commitment to quality and intention. Our approach begins with sourcing. We use non-GMO grains grown in New York and wildflower honey that supports pollinator ecosystems. During fermentation, honey is introduced to create a softer, more rounded mouthfeel. Each spirit is distilled with precision, carefully separating heads, hearts, and tails to remove harsh congeners and preserve only the cleanest expression of the spirit. What sets our whiskey apart is the finishing process. After years of aging, our rye whiskey and bourbon are placed into barrels coated with wildflower honey or maple syrup. This technique naturally rounds the edges of the spirit, creating a smoother, more approachable profile without adding sweetness. The result is a whiskey designed for sipping — structured, balanced, and free of the harsh burn often associated with high-proof spirits. As a women-owned distillery in New York, we are proud to craft spirits that align with the values of conscious consumers. Sustainability is built into every step, from regenerative farming partnerships to small-batch production and responsible sourcing. Whether you are exploring a honey finished whiskey, mixing a classic cocktail, or looking for a thoughtful gift, our collection is designed for moments that matter.
