The pair launched the distillery in 2011 with a focus on whiskey after taking a course at New York's Cornell University on artisanal distilling. In 2018, Drucker, living in Brooklyn at the time, partnered with Appalachian Gap to brew Split Spirits , his idea for a whiskey line infused with flavors from various types of wood.
