Bernard de Marigny wasn’t a moonshiner, but this Creole real estate developer and “occasional” gambler had no fear of going against the grain. And in 1805, he subdivided his plantation to create the Faubourg Marigny, the first suburb downriver from the original New Orleans city limits.

In his honor, we’re proud to craft a spirit that celebrates the fun, funky gumbo of old and new that marks the Marigny’s vibrant city blocks. Pour our Marigny Moonshine and you’ll discover a smooth Louisiana rice whiskey that settles in at 100 proof, a highly refined — and completely legal, we might add — version of the stuff a nervous mountain man might sell you in a jar. It’s Big Easy white lightning, made for taking it easy.
