Sometimes, New Jersey gets a bad rap. Mostly because of things like Snookie. And Newark. But hey, give the Garden State a chance. Because it’s making rum now.

Go West, Organic Spirits
The organic trend is here to stay, and the popularity of organic spirits continues to grow. Michigan’s Journeyman Distillery is expanding their distribution into California.

Journeyman organic spirits can also be found in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Tennessee, Massachusetts and New Jersey.
