Ferri notes the basement’s likeness to “an old catacomb, waiting to be explored.” When working on the tasting room upstairs, the team unearthed an original brick fireplace. Tables and other pieces used wood harvested onsite, with other treasures still waiting to be discovered. Local government from the Town of Esopus nominated this a priority project for the region. The proposal included a 25-room hotel, a 10,000 sq ft ballroom, restaurants, and more.

And finally, seeing first-hand the distillery operations in the cellar of the former monastery. The tour will conclude with a tasting and discussion of our limited batch world class spirits and what makes them so special. On a quiet stretch of 9W dotted by farms and vineyards, there is a corridor of Catholic institutions—historic monasteries, schools, and camps that have quietly existed along the river for over 100 years. In the 1850’s, Archibald Russell, a known philanthropist and founder of Ulster County Savings in Kingston, built a home for his family on an estate known as Glen Albyn.

He also supported other local producers through his operation at Gardiner Liquid Mercantile. This expert revealed that Hudson House served as a major stop along the hobo circus. Because of the freight train bifurcating the property—Hudson House is one of two destinations along the river that has an underpass—riders would leap off the train and follow a trail up the hill.

Daniel Radcliffe is a lock for Merrily, and Steven Skybell gave the most likable performance in Cabaret as the Jewish merchant Herr Schultz. Brandon Victor Dixon was unforgettable despite limited stage time in Hell’s Kitchen, and Michael Urie was the single funniest performer in a very funny Spamalot. I’m also predicting Paul Alexander Nolan for Water for Elephants, but I’d rather see Ben Cook take the spot for his wrenching turn in Illinoise. We use select New York State grains supporting local farms for our spirit production in small batches.
Hudson House & Distillery Offers River Views and a Rich History
Early visitors will get a taste of primary offerings Black Creek Bourbon and Black Creek Rye, the latter of which will join the official Empire Rye designation. To produce Empire Rye, a distiller must source 100-percent of its ingredients from New York growers. Another bourbon will utilize local maple syrup for a subtle sweetness, and the team will soon tap trees on the own property for sap. Black Creek Whiskey’s label contains a photo of the property in the 1800s, back when the Durkee family owned it. Bottle releases are always small-batch collector’s items, with their own identifying “Easter eggs.” Seres and Ferri strive to reveal the Hudson Valley’s history to visitors far and wide through their labeling. Potential future plans include a cinnamon whiskey referencing the burning of Kingston in 1777, and paying homage to local heroes like Sojourner Truth.
My wife caught a glimpse of this site driving on 9W and encouraged me to check it out. We snuck onto the property, and our first glimpse of the river blew us away,” Ferri recalls. In a pure moment of synchronicity, what is now Hudson House hit the market less than a week prior.
Part of what makes our spirits so special is the water from an onsite old artesian well that taps into a Catskill aquifer. As that water travels to Hudson House, it passes over limestone creating our naturally soft mineral water we call our "Holy Water" which is used in all of our craft spirits. Seres and Ferri spent weeks in the basement fumbling their way through the assembly of the stills. (“There’s no instruction booklet to put distillery equipment together!” Ferri says). They’ve hired a distiller who most recently worked at Hillrock Estate and at Tuthilltown (which Ralph Erenzo founded) in its early days. Luckily, Seres and Ferri had foresight to start their first batch years ago.

Spirit aficionados travel far and wide to experience tastings in atmospheric cellars and on bucolic farms. Shaina Taub’s brilliant Suffs, Alicia Keys’ joyous Hell’s Kitchen and the exhilarating Sufjan Stevens-Justin Peck dance-musical hybrid collaboration Illinoise are — or should be — sure bets. I’m less sure about the final two slots, but I’ll go with Days of Wine and Roses, a lovely, low-key but wrenching tale of alcoholism during New York’s Mad Men era. And while Lempicka was an uneven account of the sadly forgotten 20th century artist Tamara Lempicka, it had more than enough moments to join the race. Schedule a tour to learn more about how this incredible one of a kind distillery came to life and overcame enormous challenges over 6 years. They gutted the entire basement, ending up with 12 ft-high ceilings, German copper stills and columns, and a small lounge with a picture window peering into the distillery.
The Hudson House: A Destination Distillery on the Riverfront
“I kept doing events, running a venue called the DL in the Lower East Side, and Charles was promoting Star Vodka on the rooftop.” The pair sipped vodka together, riffing back and forth about different ideas. Seres is one of the founders of the NYC Hospitality Alliance, a vast network of future allies. They connected right away and shared the same dream of opening a one-of-a-kind all-in-one destination.
Situated on an iconic 27-acre waterfront property enabling both land and water access, The Hudson House is home to a one-of-a-kind farm distillery, producing ultra premium, limited batch spirits. Go back in time to the 1850's when the property was a private residence, to the 1900's as a monastery for over 100 years and finally transformed into The Hudson House & Distillery. You will be guided through the old manor, parlors, dining room, library and more.
There’s another candle company up in Hudson we’re looking to do something with…. So you’re coming into our world, coming to this experience, and you’re leaving knowing you experienced something very unique and different and representative of the greater Hudson Valley,” Ferri enthuses. Hudson House also features craft beverages from other local producers under a private label. It showcases Mill House Brewing Co.’s light lager and Kolsch, Millbrook Winery’s award-winning Tocai, and several wines from the Finger Lakes region.
The 77th annual Tony Awards, hosted by Ariana DeBose, will air live on CBS starting at 8 p.m. ET/5 PT on Sunday, June 16, from the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts in New York City. The live broadcast will be preceded by a streaming preshow on Pluto TV at which some awards will be handed out.
