Gaspee Raid Whiskey Launch

In 1772, Rhode Islanders staged a fiery rebellion by burning the HMS Gaspee — a bold act that foreshadowed the Boston Tea Party. To honor Rhode Island’s role in American history and celebrate its 250th anniversary, the Rhode Island Historical Society teamed up with White Dog Distilling to create Sabin’s Spirit, a whiskey aged for the first time by the distillery and named after Sabin’s Tavern, where the Gaspee raid was planned. The whiskey, inspired by colonial New England flavors, is now available for pre-order and will debut at the Historical Society’s Golden Ball. A portion of proceeds funds the Society’s vital work preserving Rhode Island’s heritage through museums, research centers, and educational programs.
