South Jersey â and all of New Jersey for that matter â gets a lot of due respect and attention for its amazing array of craft breweries.
But you donât hear as much about the equally fine distilleries that offer small-batch spirits that are truly impressive.
So, to celebrate National Craft Distillery Day on May 22, we turn our attention to the local distilleries that are churning out artisanal vodka, whiskey, rum, gin and much more. And while you can find many of these brands in liquor stores to enjoy at home or in cocktails at your local watering hole, we canât encourage you enough to visit the distilleries, learn about the process and enjoy a shot or cocktail right in the space it was made.
