Owney's Blend
Our vision has always been to create a portfolio of premium and truly unique rums that disrupt traditional perceptions. Owney’s Blend is no exception. The rum is a distinct combination of our handmade Original and aged rum imported from the Dominican Republic that’s distilled from fresh sugar cane juice. We think this special blend is awesome – silky smooth and versatile with a true NY edge.

The Inspiration
Owney’s is inspired by a rum-soaked time in America’s history – Prohibition! At the time, “rum runners” were known to smuggle in aged Caribbean rums and blend them with locally distilled spirits to extend precious reserves. This is our modern (and legal!) interpretation of that practice, New York style.
The Process
The Owney’s Blend is crafted by mixing our still proof Original and filtered cask- strength Dominican Rum. In addition to removing color, filtering helps temper some of the heavier barrel notes from the aged rum, letting the Brooklyn distillate shine. Our proprietary American-Caribbean rum blend is then brought to bottle proof with NY tap water.
