Oligan Distilling, which has quietly been making its signature vodka since last May at 918 Albany-Shaker Road in Latham, on Wednesday opens the tasting room at the distillery. The owner is Sean O'Keeffe, who previously worked locally at Regeneron Pharmaceuticals in East Greenbush and learned distilling at Kings County Distillery in Brooklyn.
