Locally Crafted, Community Driven, and Uniquely Long Island
Twisted Cow Distillery, located in East Northport, is raising a glass to three incredible years of crafting premium artisanal liquors right here on Long Island. Known for its locally sourced ingredients, community spirit, and handcrafted whiskey, rye, vodka, and bourbon, Twisted Cow has become a local favorite for spirit enthusiasts who appreciate quality with character.
From the start, Twisted Cow has been about more than just great liquor — it’s about celebrating life’s twists and turns. Founded by former Wall Street CFO John Pawluk, the distillery was born from his decision to trade the fast-paced corporate world for a life rooted in family, community, and craft. His bold move inspired the brand’s motto: “Own Your Spirit.”
The Spirit of Long Island
Every bottle of Twisted Cow tells a story of local pride. Using grains grown on the East End’s sun-fed farms and nurtured by the island’s salt air, the distillery produces spirits that embody the essence of Long Island. Whether it’s their smooth bourbon, crisp vodka, or rich rye, each creation is pure, clear, and deeply connected to home.
Beyond its award-worthy spirits, Twisted Cow has become a community hub — offering live music, private and public events, local collaborations, and a space where friends gather to celebrate and unwind. Pawluk’s commitment to supporting local vendors and events has made Twisted Cow a name synonymous with Long Island craftsmanship and camaraderie.

Each project reflects the same dedication to quality and character that defines every Twisted Cow bottle.
