How IT ALL Began

You’ll never forget TEAKWOOD Rum by the John-Henry Rum Co. Found only in Chicago.

​

John and Henry were true American entrepreneurs. They created a unique rum recipe for their distillery in the Chicago market in the late 1910s.

​

Then, when The Prohibition Act of 1920 banned the manufacture, sale, and distribution of alcoholic beverages, they closed their business.

 

Yet, years ago, those coveted recipes passed down through our family’s generations to me.

​

Now, it’s time to revive this secret recipe...one century later.

​

If you’ve ever been inspired to the point of being obsessed about creating something so profound that others would recognize and appreciate it, too, then you’ll understand how much John and Henry mean to me.

​

If it weren’t for my passion to share TEAKWOOD Noble Rum with you, Chicago truly would be missing out on the exquisite flavor that captures that distinct Chicago Style.

​

We, at the John-Henry Rum Co., handcraft our rum in small batches, infused and ageing French oak with only the finest natural, organic ingredients, to create an uncommon palate and aroma.

​

We want you to celebrate your own cherished Chicago moments with a glass of our Noble Rum, “Chicago’s One Sip to Unforgettable!”

​

Try stopping at one sip. We dare you!
