Mohawk Valley Moonshine is made right here in Central New York. This local take on a southern style favorite began on a starry night with a backyard fire between friends over a glass of whiskey.

Beth Stack and Eric Boyer are the brains behind the DikinDurt Distillery and it is a first for Herkimer County. It took two years of planning, but the dream that was born that Fall evening became a reality in 2014 when they finally opened their doors and their bottles. Their product is already available in many liquor stores and locations around the area including:

  • Summit Hill Liquor - Newport
  • Ramar Liquors - Herkimer
  • Ilion Wine & Spirits - Ilion
  • Happen Inn - Little Falls
  • Valley Wine & Liquors - Herkimer
  • The Ole V.I. - Herkimer
  • Seneca Wine & Liquor - New Hartford
  • Elks Lodge - Little Falls
  • Cangees - Herkimer
  • Fairways Restaurant @ Mohawk Valley Country Club - Little Falls

DikinDurt is expected to release a full line of flavored moonshines by the end of August 2015.
