Welcome!
We are an innovative, Double Gold award-winning distillery known for our ultra-premium brand whiskeys, vodkas and ready-to-drink vodka based cocktails, convenient Threesome Cocktails and gins.
Located in historic Maritime South Norwalk on the CT shoreline, we are America’s first distillery to incorporate milled hemp seed into our whiskey mashbills, providing for a wonderful nutty taste to an exquisitely smooth, Double Gold award-winning flavor profile.
BLAZE, another Double Gold winner, a “real bourbon drinkers’” cinnamon bourbon, is small batch and handmade; first-of-a-kind Threesome Cocktails are always fresh and always a perfect bartender pour; while our vodka RTD’s are all 100% natural ingredients.

“Wow... what a treat to find this hidden gem. Had heard through a friend about the craft spirits being created at SoNo 1420. They are great! I enjoyed the lemon vodka and the rye especially. While there you must make time to enjoy a cocktail. You will be treated something put together with passion and creativity like you would expect to experience at the finest establishments around.
The spirits are unique and well worth trying onsite and bringing a few bottles home to experiment with on your own! Enjoy the experience and drink responsibly!”
