The island of Nantucket is a small slice of heaven situated 30 miles south of Cape Cod off the coast of Massachusetts. Rising a mere 100 feet above the North Atlantic and occupying less than 50 square miles in area, the island is a natural marvel and one of America’s most frequently visited destinations. Nantucket is also the home of micro-distilled Triple Eight Vodka.

Introduced in the spring of 2001, this small batch gem is handcrafted at the Triple Eight Distillery, the facilities of which once housed the Cisco Brewery. The super-premium vodka is triple-distilled in a pot still using organic corn imported from Holland and ultra-pure, sand-filtered water from an aquifer deep beneath the island. The water, which contributes significantly to the spirit’s singular character, is drawn from a well designated #888.
