Tommyrotter Distillery opened its doors in July 2015. Founded by Bobby Finan and Sean Insalaco, the distillery resides in a 116-year-old factory in Buffalo, NY’s historic Hydraulic manufacturing district.
A distinct truth lies within each of us. Pursuing that truth is the sign of a Tommyrotter—one who breaks rank to chase what drives them. At Tommyrotter Distillery, our creative process is inspired by the Tommyrotters’ Club, a society of rebellious, late 19th century artisans who sought their own path. Honoring their industrious spirit of back, hand and heart, Tommyrotter Distillery crafts award-winning spirits using small batch production techniques. Give it a try – the truth is inside.
Tommyrotter distills, produces, bottles, labels and packages all of their products on their 2,700-square foot production floor. With the help of a small crew of rotating distillery workers, their humbly sized team manufactures the entire annual output right in downtown Buffalo.
Award winning spirits.
Co-owners Robert Finan and Sean Insalaco have harnessed their passion to create a portfolio of innovative products to keep the independent spirits category alive and fresh.
