A True Farm To Bottle Operation
One of New Jersey's Largest Distilleries
Nauti Spirits, a true farm to bottle operation, is also one of NJ’s largest distilleries, with two massive all-copper pot stills and column still from America’s oldest and most respected still manufacturer, Vendome Copper and Brass, in Louisville KY. It is located on a bucolic 60-acre coastal working farm that sits between the Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay, less than 5 minutes from (and between) downtown Cape May and the Cape May – Lewes Ferry. We are unique in NJ, as we use much of what we grow on our farm to produce our spirits, such as our gold-medal (San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2018 and 2021) winning sweet potato and corn vodka. What we cannot grow on site, due to size limitations, we procure from other NJ farmers (with exceptions for ingredients that cannot be grown here, such as sugarcane molasses for our rum) through farm leases. We grow, mill, mash, ferment, distill, finish, age, bottle and serve our spirits right here, on our coastal farm. We also sell our spirits in NJ, MD, DE and DC through our distributor, Opici Family Distributing. Our spacious on-site tasting room, patios, courtyard and lawn area combine the agricultural beauty of our farm and fields with the nautical heritage that is Cape May, incorporating massive sailing ship beams in the bar, ancient marine hardware and salvaged ships’ lanterns, mixed with a clean industrial vibe. This is where we serve up some of the most refreshing and unique cocktails anywhere to be had, some of which incorporate herbs, flowers vegetables and fruit that we grow on site, along with other locally-sourced fruits and vegetables. Tours, tastings, spectacular cocktails, live local music, special events, indoor and outdoor games, and frequent food on the farm (next to the licensed premises), make Nauti Spirits the ultimate farm to bottle destination.
