Breuckelen Distillery Earns National Recognition for New York-Made Spirits

BROOKLYN, NY – August 6, 2026 – Breuckelen Distilling, the Brooklyn-based craft distillery, has earned national recognition for its commitment to crafting award-winning spirits from 100% New York grain, with both 77 Whiskey – The Local Rye & Corn and Glorious Gin receiving top honors from the industry’s leading spirits competitions.

Dedicated to celebrating the entire production journey from farm to cocktail, Breuckelen Distilling crafts every bottle in Brooklyn using 100% New York grain, reflecting the quality of New York agriculture and the craftsmanship of its makers. Every bottle reflects the work of the New Yorkers who make it possible – from the farmers who grow the grain, to the distillers who craft each spirit, to the bartenders who introduce it to consumers one pour at a time. Among New York’s established community of craft spirits producers, Breuckelen Distilling stands out for its award-winning whiskey and gin. Its recent accolades from some of the industry's most respected competitions include:

77 Whiskey – The Local Rye & Corn (45% ABV, 750mL, $49.99 SRP)

“From the beginning, our goal wasn’t to simply make great spirits – it was to create spirits that truly represent New York. We’ve always believed that if you start with great New York-grown ingredients and stay focused on quality, the results will speak for themselves. To see both our whiskey and gin honored across multiple respected competitions is incredibly rewarding and validates that commitment to craftsmanship and supporting local agriculture,” said Brad Estabrooke, founder of Breuckelen Distilling. “These awards are a meaningful recognition of the work our team puts into every bottle, and they’re an exciting milestone as more people discover what New York craft spirits are all about.”
