As legend has it, while the plague ravaged Europe in the 15th Century, a botanist named Richard Forthave created a popular herbal tonic as protection. Looking towards history for inspiration for every one of their botanical spirits, two friends in Brooklyn, New York City: painter Aaron Sing Fox and writer/producer Daniel de la Nuez founded Forthave Spirits. Their natural and delicious botanical spirits are born from a library of botanicals that includes over 200 different types of herbs - roots and barks, leaves and flowers, and fruits and seeds. Using only plant-based ingredients, they macerate in stainless steel tanks, use no artificial filtering agents or artificial colors, and the only sweeteners used are raw: organic turbinado sugar or raw honey from Upstate New York. Almost all the of the ingredients are USDA organically certified- the few that aren’t, have either been grown by small farmers without certification or wild foraged.
