Harvey Cedars' Trusted Craft Distillery Professionals

Quiet Island Living Deserves Spirits Worth Savoring

Harvey Cedars residents and seasonal homeowners choose this quiet northern corner of Long Beach Island for a reason - the wide beaches, the bay access, the peaceful residential character, and the tight-knit community that surrounds Sunset Park and the Barnegat Light Yacht Club. This is a place that values quality over noise, authenticity over spectacle, and experience over novelty. When Harvey Cedars visitors look for an evening out that matches that sensibility, they want more than a crowded bar - they want genuine craft.

LBI Distilling Company is what that looks like on Long Beach Island. We are the first and only family-owned distillery on LBI, and we operate with the same commitment to quality that Harvey Cedars homeowners bring to everything they choose. Our spirits - Cool Vibes Vodka, Shark Fin Gin, Rudderless Rum, and Aurora Borealis Bourbon - are produced on-site and carry the genuine character of a small-batch, family-run operation that puts craft above convenience every single time.

A Tasting Experience Worthy of Harvey Cedars' Coastal Lifestyle

Harvey Cedars may be the most residential and serene community on Long Beach Island, but its visitors know how to appreciate a properly crafted evening. Our downstairs lounge is particularly well-suited to the Harvey Cedars temperament - intimate, relaxed, unhurried, and designed for the kind of conversation and sipping that a quiet coastal evening calls for. On weekends, our upstairs tasting room adds live music and higher energy for those who want to mark a special occasion with something more celebratory.

Our spirits are thoughtfully made to reward that kind of attention. Aurora Borealis Bourbon is aged two and a half years, developing honey, baked bread, and brown sugar notes that make it the perfect sipping spirit for someone who values patience and craft. Rudderless Rum's caramel-and-vanilla warmth captures everything right about a summer evening on the bay side of the island. We also offer to-go bottles - ideal for Harvey Cedars homeowners who want to enjoy our spirits from the comfort of their own oceanside or bayfront property after a day well spent.

If you're ready to experience the craft distillery that Harvey Cedars visitors recommend to everyone they know, we're just down the island.
