Established in 2010 by partners David Haskill, a magazine editor, and co-founder/Master Distiller Colin Spoelman, a Yale-educated ex-architect with roots in Kentucky - Kings County Distillery is cited as the first distillery opened in New York City since Prohibition. Recently awarded the title of the #2 Craft Bourbon by American wine critic and New York Times writer Eric Asimov, this relatively unknown yet not to be underestimated craft whiskey brand distills its own spirits exclusively and offers several products including; Peated Bourbon, Empire Bourbon, Bib Bourbon, and King's County Chocolate Whiskey. Kings County has gone on to win multiple awards and was named the Distillery of the Year by the American Distilling Institute in 2016, and continues to offer innovatively crafted whiskey using various tried and true distilling practices from various cultures - from Scottish to American. The result is a product that exhibits true, undeniable quality in every drop.
