Maker Notes

Exclave Spirits was created to pay homage to the lost stories and contributions of Black people who have advanced distilled spirits. 

Black has been synonymous with cool for a long time, but now it’s time to write our story. Too often our stories are marginalized, if recognized at all. In recognizing this, Exclave exists to counter this tendency. Eschewing what has been previously written, opting instead for autonomy over our narratives. Ones that embrace pain and celebrate victory. Ones that fundamentally understand the role our history, both in this country and throughout the Diaspora, plays in our lives today. 

As we embark on this journey 3 principles are essential to Exclave: Authenticity, Freedom, and Self-Determination. 

With every product we release we explore the intersections of these concepts. Interrogating what they meant not only the vanguard of Black distillers who have laid the foundation we now stand upon, but for ourselves as we collectively determine a future that centers a Blackness that is vibrant, triumphant, and liberated. 

Exclave is a celebration of where we’ve come from and where we’re going.

Exclave Rye is a powerful blend of 51% rye 49% mash aged in new American white oak barrels to produce a rich whiskey that embodies the skill and sophistication of Black American spirits producers.
