RUM OF THE YEAR 2024
ROLLING FORK:
NO FINER SPIRITS CAN BE MADE
Rolling Fork matches the best imported rums with hand-selected ex-whiskey casks to create high-end rums with unique and complex flavor combinations. While the prevailing perception of rum in the U.S. may be “feet-in-the-sand, pina colada in-hand,” the founders of Rolling Fork take a different approach.
First, Turner Wathen and Jordan Morris source rare, aged rums from the best distilleries on the planet. Then, they source unique whiskey casks from some of Kentucky’s most legendary distilleries. Experience has taught them exactly what characteristics each cask brings to the party. Every single origin, cask—strength rum is matched to a different cask. Experimentation and innovation lead to rums with exceptional flavor profiles not found anywhere else.
Rolling Fork rums are aged and bottled in Indiana, begging the question: could the capital of high-end rum in the U.S. be in … Indiana?
COCKTAIL CULTURE
Our rums are as good for sipping as they are for shaking up in cocktails. There are delectable tropical drinks and Rolling Fork rums are also great in classic cocktails. Whether you fancy a Daiquiri or a Manhattan, Rolling Fork has a rum for you.
And of course we’ve got a Rum for the Roses and a Rum Julep – we live in Louisville!
