Rolling Fork: Spirits for Rum Nerds
Manage episode 390663021 series 1257545
Rolling Fork Spirits won me over immediately. The two owners, Turner Wathen and Jordan Morris, set out to create a brand that offered something no one else was offering. Luckily for us (read: me) that meant rum! This small, independent bottler could easily fly under the radar of spirits geeks. But, again, lucky for us, they’re doing it more for themselves than anyone. They source some of the best rums of the world and then, rather than bottling immediately, they further age in southern Indiana, just a few minutes from Bourbon country in Kentucky. And that proximity means access to some very interesting barrels. This may not be the most economical way to run a business, but it means they’re sitting on and releasing some of the most sought-after rums in the world.
They share rickhouses, facilities, and a headquarters with Huber Winery and Starlight Distillery in Indiana, and that partnership means a lot of collaboration. It’s an easy place to get to from Louisville and Bourbon country, and from Indianapolis, of course. I highly recommend check it out if you’re in the area. Turner and Jordan treat their visitors right. And Ted Huber has built a beautiful location in the rolling hills of southern Indiana. The area is called “starlight” for a reason – the property is absolutely beautiful during and after sunset.
