Founded in 2014, South Florida distillers is Fort Lauderdale’s First Legal Distillery. We Specialize in Handmade Rum as well as a variety of other handcrafted spirits. Stop by our tasting room to sample our spirits, grab a drink or maybe find the inspiration to create your own spirit too. Book one of our make-your-own gin classes or get ambitious and private label your own brand.

Being native South Floridians with access to Sugarcane, we decided to focus our efforts on rum. Established in 2014, Fort Lauderdale’s oldest distillery started making high ester rum out of a counter-top 13-gallon stainless steel still. That small still created Fort Lauderdale’s first legal Rum, FWAYGO. With such a small industry in South Florida we saw the need for a craft spirits incubator, a place where we could turn spirit dreams into reality. Brand owners, hobby distillers and entrepreneurs came to us with visions of their own spirit brand. Those visions became reality and we are pleased to offer many of them in our tasting room.
