Tomhannock Candles
"Make honest, well‑crafted candles inspired by the landscapes and seasons of Upstate New York."
Tomhannock Candles was built on a simple idea: that a great candle should smell like somewhere real — not a perfume lab, not a concept, but somewhere you've actually been or somewhere you wish you could go.
The Studio
Where Every Candle Begins
Valley Falls, NY sits at the edge of the Adirondacks, the Hudson Valley, and everything that makes Upstate New York what it is.
That's where Tomhannock Candles started — not in a warehouse, not in a factory, but in a studio where every pour is done by hand and every scent is chosen for a reason. We set out to capture the specific feeling of this region: the smell of a birch fire in October, apple orchards on a cool morning, the deep quiet of a winter woodline.
What started as a creative pursuit grew into something we're genuinely proud of. Every candle is tested, refined, and poured until it's right — not until it's fast. We don't believe in cutting corners on what goes inside your home.
All 17 of our scents ship nationwide from Valley Falls. When the box arrives, we want it to feel like a gift — because that's exactly how it was made.
What We Stand For
Our Values
Pure Ingredients
Premium wax blends, lead-free cotton wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance oils. We never cut corners on what goes inside.
Batch Only
Every candle is poured in small, intentional runs — never mass-produced. Each batch gets our full attention from first pour to final label.
Upstate Inspired
Every scent is rooted in a real place or season — birch forests, apple orchards, mountain air. The Hudson Valley lives in every pour.
From Studio to Doorstep
Our Process
Source
We use premium wax blends from US suppliers paired with lead-free cotton wicks — chosen for clean burns and lasting scent.
Pour
Every candle is hand-poured in our Valley Falls studio in controlled runs, keeping quality consistent from the first to the last jar.
Cure
After pouring, each candle rests and cures fully — the step most brands skip. We don't. It makes all the difference in fragrance throw.
Ship
Hand-labeled, carefully packed, and shipped nationwide. Opening the box should feel like receiving something made just for you.
