from the producer

Kings County Distillery was founded in 2010 in Brooklyn and became New York City's first whiskey distillery since Prohibition. It is housed in the 1899 Paymaster Building inside the Brooklyn Navy Yard.

The distillery works with New York-grown grain and traditional pot stills, and makes bourbon, rye and other whiskies in small batches, right here in the city.
