HISTORY

OUR STORY IS ROOTED IN

HISTORY, COMMUNITY, AND QUALITY

AND IT ALL STARTS IN SCHENECTADY, NY.

Our story begins amidst the echoes of history, tracing back to the humble origins of Schenectady's first mill. In 1666, Sweer Teunise laid the foundation for what would become the Mohawk Valley's inaugural industry along the banks of the Mill Kill. Despite facing the wrath of a devastating flood in 1673, the resilient spirit of this landmark persevered, rising once more from the ashes to symbolize the enduring resilience of our community.

Today, that same indomitable spirit lives on at Mill Lane Distilling Company, where tradition meets innovation to craft exceptional spirits. Nestled within the historic Mill Lane Artisan District, our distillery stands as a beacon of hope for Schenectady's revitalization. Through our dedication to handcrafted excellence, we not only honor the legacy of our city's past but also propel it towards a brighter future.

Join us as we raise a toast to the journey ahead, guided by the echoes of our storied past and the promise of new beginnings. At Mill Lane Distilling Company, our spirits are more than just libations—they're a celebration of the rich tapestry of Schenectady's history and the boundless potential of its future.
