Hey McGlassFolk! So after a thrilling (and we mean that literally) breakfast at The Piggery yesterday morning (more about them later), we were off to Burdett, NY, and Finger Lakes Distilling Company. These guys are making 17 different products, among them a killer Bourbon, Rye, Gin, some Vodkas and several liqueurs that will just blow your doors off. Look for a vid on them very soon. What a day!

Mark, the historian, here on assignment in Ithaca, NY. The Finger Lakes region is filled with natural beauty- parks, lakes, waterfalls, trails. The locals really appreciate what mother nature has given them and consider themselves stewards of their area. Part of that stewardship is an attention to being green and consuming locally. That extends to their local craft beverages, of which there are many. The Ithaca Beer Co. Is the 43rd largest in the US. The Finger Lakes Distilling Co. is nearby along with dozens of excellent wineries. Over the next few weeks we'll be shooting episodes throughout the area. We're excited to bring you this new region. Stick with us to explore and Laugh, Learn , Drink!
