Genesee Block Ice Company

Genesee Block Ice Company is a Rochester, New York-based producer of premium, ultra-clear ice, specifically designed for the discerning cocktail and beverage industry. We specialize in crafting large-format ice – including cubes, spears, spheres, and custom blocks – sourced from the pristine waters of Hemlock Lake. Our commitment to quality begins with our heritage, rooted in the legacy of Mathias Kondolf, Rochester’s original ice baron. We cater to local bars and restaurants, providing just-in-time delivery and eliminating the need for costly ice storage. By utilizing a food-grade band saw for single-cut ice production, we ensure superior clarity and minimize ice degradation, ultimately enhancing the quality of every drink. We’re dedicated to supplying the finest ingredients – in this case, exceptional ice – to those who appreciate the art of mixology.
