From the Hudson Valley News Network:
The Alexandrion Group, Romania’s largest spirits producer, will establish its first United States distillery in the Mid-Hudson Valley.
The Alexandrion Group will invest more than $40 million to renovate the new distillery in Putnam County, creating 102 new jobs over five years, said Governor Andrew M. Cuomo.
Upon completion in 2020, the new distillery will produce premium spirits tailored for the U.S. market such as whiskey, bourbon, gin, brandy and vodka, he added.
