NorthFork, Long Island
Distilled on the NorthFork.
Rooted in Long Island.
Small-batch rum crafted where the Sound meets the sea. Five expressions. One place. A story three centuries in the making.
Our Story
Born from the Land and the Water
Long Island has a rum story that most people have forgotten. Before Prohibition, before the vineyards, before the Hamptons became the Hamptons, this island was a hub of the colonial rum trade. Molasses came in from the Caribbean. Distilleries lined the harbors. The spirit of the place was literally in the barrels.
NorthFork Distillers was built to honor that history and to make something worthy of this land. We distill in small batches, source locally where we can, and put the North Fork's character into every bottle.
The Lineup
Five Expressions. One Distillery.
Each rum in our lineup is 41% ABV, 82 proof, and built with a specific purpose in mind.
Three Centuries of Rum
"Long Island's harbors once ran with molasses. The rum trade built this island. We're just picking up where they left off."
