Stoutridge Vineyard, Llc company information, Employees & Contact Information

Stoutridge Distillery & Winery is a bold leader in high-quality, small-batch spirits and natural wines in the Hudson Valley. We believe in the power of science, art, and local agriculture and are driven by a desire to challenge the status quo. It is our belief that good things take time. The decisions we make work with nature rather than against it. For us, details are everything. All of the work from grain and fruit to glass is done on-site, and the majority of our ingredients come from the Hudson Valley. In 2006 the winery opened to the public and produced its first vintage of minimal intervention, food-friendly wine. In 2017 the distillery was launched and in 2018 the malt house and kiln were brought on line. Stoutridge is one of a handful of distilleries in the US doing its own malting and the only one with a traditional kilning floor. Recognized as a craft malt certified distillery by the Craft Maltsters Guild, 100% of the barley malt used in their distinctive American Single Malts is produced on-site. The owners, Stephen and Kim, are both scientists and are very comfortable questioning the status quo and finding new and creative ways to operate the business and craft innovative products that are rooted in tradition, focused on quality, and deliver natural expressions of flavor. As both a NY Farm Winery and Farm Distillery all of the fruit and grain used in production is from NY and most is grown locally in the Hudson Valley. Each product is made in small batches and all operations from grain/fruit to glass occur on-site. Many of the award-winning whiskeys are aged in barrels crafted by a local cooper from Hudson Valley oak, giving these products a uniquely local flavor. Stoutridge’s craft products are sought-after by competition bartenders to add that extra something to their creations and are regularly recognized in competition. Most recently Stoutridge Absinthe Prelude received a Double Gold medal and was selected Best of Class Distilled Specialty
