Nauti Spirits Farm Distillery
NJ’s premier farm distillery serves up delicious cocktails crafted with their award-winning spirits
WHERE IS IT? Five minutes from downtown Cape May. Take Broadway over the bridge, left at the light on Sandman, left at the next light, onto Shunpike. Third driveway on the right.
WHY SHOULD I GO? Outstanding cocktails, a beautiful coastal, dog-friendly farm and stunning facilities make Nauti the home of Cape May’s True Spirits. Take a tour and savor some of the USA’s finest spirits in the most delicious cocktails west of the Atlantic (NA beverages are available, too!). Enjoy live music, outdoor/indoor games and events, or kick back and enjoy the gorgeous fields and sunsets, along with a drink from the tasting room bar honed from timbers of 19th-century ships.
Nowhere is the agricultural artisan spirit more alive than at Nauti, the Mid-Atlantic’s premier farm distillery, where spirits are made the right way — the real way. From ingredients grown largely on their farm, the Nauti crew handcrafts their internationally awarded gold medal vodka, gin, rum and whiskeys.
They created their flagship vodka from sweet potatoes and corn grown on their farm, while their aromatic gins begin their life as 100% locally grown wheat.
Nauti rum, batch-distilled from high-grade southern molasses, is made for both sipping and mixing. With corn from their farm plus rye, wheat and barley grown on local land that they lease, Nauti produces its outstanding straight bourbon whiskey and small-batch “session” whiskeys.
Head Distiller Veronica Townsend has been part of the Nauti Spirits story since the beginning. She spent three years with the company as a distiller and head of production before traveling across the country, working with other distilleries and expanding her expertise. But Cape May ultimately called her home, and in 2024 she returned to Nauti Spirits as Head Distiller. Veronica’s attention to detail and passion for innovation are key ingredients behind the quality and creativity found in every Nauti product.
