Three Buffalo’s distilleries – Black Squirrel Distillery, BFLO Distilling Company, and Lockhouse Distillery – are coming together under one roof to showcase their spirits on April 9, 2015 at Hydraulic Hearth (HH).
HH is perfectly positioned to feature the three local craft distillers, primarily due the district’s tie to the distillery industry, and second because HH is already in the business of serving craft cocktails with a local twist.
“Inspired by new state laws and an insatiable demand for local spirits, this is an historic time for distilling in Western New York,” said Hydraulic Hearth operator Harry Zemsky. “Hydraulic Hearth features local spirits on our daily cocktail menu – for this gathering, our bar manager Chris Guilmet will prepare variations on classic cocktails that highlight the uniqueness of each spirit.”
The evening will focus on select tastings from each company, as well as discussions (meet and greets) pertaining to the talents behind the operations. Along with a specially formulated cocktail menu, there will also be live music by Sugarcake.
Come get spirited away with a new wave of distillers who are upping the ante for the local cocktail movement in Buffalo.
