Whiskey

Whiskey

Our whiskey is hand made a batch at a time. It is not the easiest, but it is the best. We combine the purest locally grown grains and natural spring waters, and then carefully ferment them together. We patiently distill that fermentation, monitoring every drop. The batch process insures the cuts are made, by hand, to insure the purity and gentle flavors you will taste in every bottle.

Rum

Rum

Rum is at the heart of our distillery. With ties to centuries-old Caribbean methods using only locally grown sugar cane and
natural spring water to create a distinctly sweet and succulent spirit. Batch made and pain-stakingly distilled and aged with
distinct oak and spice flavors. Our Rum is top shelf.

OUR SPIRITS

Local Distillery in Ocala, FL

Our research and family records indicate numerous generations of our family were distillers, who settled in the south central regions of Kentucky up to the Civil War era. Although ship manifests were poorly kept, the names indicate the initial charters were financed by our direct ancestors, and suggest they brought with them the skill sets of distillation.

OUR DISTILLERY

There is a difference between craft and production spirits. Just as there is a difference between family and corporate business. It takes time to produce a craft spirit, which makes it difficult to copy. It also takes care, which cannot be duplicated. Our Spirits have a gentler taste and aroma, which often puzzles our customers at first.  See for yourself why we aren’t on the beaten path.
