The story behind it

The maker

Kirk and Sweeney was named after a wooden schooner best known for smuggling rum from the Caribbean to the Northeast during the early days of Prohibition. Captured by the Coast Guard in 1924, the ship's legacy lives on through this beautifully crafted spirit produced in the Dominican Republic.

How it is made

Handcrafted in Santiago de los Caballeros, this rum is distilled from harvested Dominican sugarcane. It is aged in American oak barrels within the warmth of the Caribbean climate, which accelerates the wood maturation process.
