Black River Distillery is a producer of fine spirits out of Pamplico, South Carolina. Established in 2016, Black River Distillery was opened by Gary G. Jewell with the help of his son, Jefferson, and daughter, Heather.

Their vodka is a culmination of the family’s 170 year old recipe and Gary’s dedication to tradition and skilled distillery. This unique, gluten-free vodka is sources its primary grain, corn, from South Carolina. Nevertheless, its recipe stems from a rich family history dating all the way back to 1850 in Nebraska. 
However, in 1969, Gary Jewell revives his great-grandfather’s recipes. For the next 30 years, Gary travels around the world, experimenting with William’s recipes and honing his skills as a distiller.
