In 1726, thirty-eight African-born slaves escaped from the Carolinas and headed south to seek refuge amongst the Spanish just two miles north of St. Augustine, Florida. Skilled workers and farmers, these brave men and women also fought alongside the Spanish and their Indian allies against their former masters. In 1738, the governor of Florida would declare Fort Mosé the first free Black town in the United States. Over 250 years later, an African American spirits maker, Victor G. Harvey Sr., created Fort Mosé 1738 Bourbon Whiskey was created to pay homage to the town established by those escaped slaves. The whiskey is bottled at Mr. Harvey's very own Palm Beach Distillery located in West Palm Beach, FL. He created an exceptional mash combining corn, rye, and malted barley aged to perfection to deliver an unmatched flavorful taste.
