Cinnamon Flavored Whiskey
Paying homage to our home town, New Smyrna Beach is known not only for it’s great waves & rays, but also, perchance, the occasional shark bite.

We can’t control the odd places people choose to find themselves in (like the mouth of a shark) - but we can make a damn good whisky to honor such occurrences!

Turnbull Bay
Premium Silver Rum
Rum running has deep roots in Florida. During prohibition, native Daytona area local Bill McCoy became famous for the creation of “Rum Row.” McCoy was a skilled boater who’d run uncut Caribbean rum up and down the East Coast, hiding his boats and stash from law enforcement in places just like Turnbull Bay. We couldn’t think of a better way to honor his efforts of spirit provision than to name our rum line after those legends.
Our Premium Demerara Silver Rum pays tribute to the role our hometown of New Smyrna Beach played in American rum history. The modern settlement that has become New Smyrna Beach was first founded on the industry of growing and milling sugar cane, the many ruins of the old sugar mills are still present today. We start with 100% Demerara raw Sugar Cane, that we cook down in house. Our slow ferment process produces a silver rum clean and full of bright fruity notes, making it perfect to drink neat, chilled, or as the base of your favorite rum cocktail!

4 Year Old Bourbon Barrel Aged Rum
Rum running has deep roots in Florida. During prohibition, native Daytona area local Bill McCoy became famous for the creation of “Rum Row.” McCoy was a skilled boater who’d run uncut Caribbean rum up and down the East Coast, hiding his boats and stash from law enforcement in places just like Turnbull Bay. We couldn’t think of a better way to honor his efforts of spirit provision than to name our rum line after those legends.
Our Bourbon Barrel Aged Rum starts off life like any other batch of our Demerara Sugar Rum, before spending a minimum of 4 years in one of our used bourbon barrels.. The aging process rounds out the bright fruity notes with full flavor and a creamy soft finish. We strongly believe in single barrel bottling, this means while all of these barrel will have an overall similar profile to one-another, they will each have their own attributes, making each bottle truly a unique experience.
Our Bourbon Barrel Aged Rum is a must have addition to any rum lovers collection!

Toasted Coconut Flavored Rum
Our flavored rums start with our Premium Demerara Silver Rum. We never use additive sugars or artificial flavoring for our spirits - instead we utilize whole ingredients and time.
For our Toasted Coconut Rum we shave & toast fresh coconut. Next we soak the toasted coconut into our silver rum, allowing the flavor to infuse over time, for the perfect refreshing tropical profile.
Once the peak flavor has been achieved, we filter, and bottle. This coconut rum isn’t like any coconut rum you’ve had before - we like to say it’s the grown up version of the freshest coconut water you can find.

We soak the vanilla beans into our silver rum, allowing the flavor to infuse over time, allowing for a silky mouthfeel with the perfect balance of sweetness.
But we don’t just stop the flavor process after filtering & bottling - we place one whole vanilla bean pod into each bottle for an extra touch of vanilla, that only gets better with time. This spirit is warm and just ever so touched with a bit of sweetness, bringing memories of grandma’s homemade vanilla custard to mind with every sip.
