SoNo 1420 American Craft Distillers

On February 4, 1919, the Connecticut State Senate, by a vote of 14 to 20, failed to ratify the 18th Amendment, making Connecticut the first – of only two - states to defeat Prohibition. The distillery chose the number "1420” as a nod to the revolutionary spirit embodied by this vote and to symbolize the rights of personal freedom for which the brand stands. The “SoNo” pays homage to the distillery’s home, South Norwalk CT, and its storied, prohibition past.
