Distiller’s Drop:
 Taste The Future Of New York Whiskey

RETURNING IN 2026

Unlock a vault of rare Great Jones Whiskey barrels from our cellar – unreleased, unrepeatable, and crafted behind closed doors.

Where to Find
the Rarest Whiskeys

in New York City

Once a year, we pull our rarest expressions from the cellar: limited releases and one-of-a-kind pours crafted for those who know where to look. Distiller’s Drop is your invitation to taste the most elusive whiskeys from Manhattan’s only whiskey distillery. Each release is rooted in local ingredients and bold experimentation, with barrels blended in secret and special hand-selected components.

Distiller’s Drop gives our distillers the freedom to share their boldest ideas, while continuing to shape the character of Manhattan whiskey making. No two drops are ever the same, and once they’re gone, they’re gone for good.

Inside NYC's Most Exclusive

Whiskey Tasting Experience

Experience the story of a whiskey told from the barrel up. You’ll embark on a guided tasting of each component that contributes to the Distiller’s Drop blend: rare cellar-kept whiskeys from unique cask combinations. The journey ends with a pour of the final creation: the latest edition of Great Jones Distiller’s Drop, unveiled for the first time, for one night only.

In addition to the whiskey tastings, you’ll be provided with a collectible Glencairn glass, passed canapés, and the exclusive opportunity to purchase a bottle of the limited time release.

Distiller’s Drop is how we honor the spirit of New York: bold, original, ever-changing. It’s our way of sharing what stirs us in the cellar with those who treasure what’s in the bottle. It’s not about legacy - it’s about shaping the future of New York’s whiskey around what’s happening right now. And if you know, you know.
