Key West Distilling

Key West


This tiny craft distiller, basically a one-man operation, creates some excellent rums, two types of vodka (including one with horseradish), one gin and one whiskey. The focus is on quality (rather than quantity), and you won't find a better spiced rum in South Florida than its Rambunctious Rum. Stop in for a free tasting and a tour.
