Nicknamed the “Peace Garden State” and “Roughrider State,” North Dakota has dramatic beauty – from the Badlands’ rugged terrain to Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Rum has a recent and intriguing history here. When Canadian Prohibition ended in 1924, North Dakota’s border became a bustling route for rum runners. They brought in Canadian rum. 2013 the first rum distillery opened its doors, offering a taste of local rum.
