ABOUT LONG BRANCH DISTILLERY
A Modern NJ Distillery
Long Branch Distillery in NJ was founded in 2017 and after 2+ years of planning, construction, decorating, crying, throwing things and biting our lips, tongues and nails – we are proud to present our distilled spirits using the latest technology in the distilling world – the iStill. Our square, stainless steel, electric stills allow us to produce the most consistent, taste-rich spirits from batch one to one million. We’re glad you’re here and hope you share the same passion we do for sipping fine, craft spirits.
