HIGH HILL DISTILLERY is a family-owned and operated business, driven by a shared passion for crafting exceptional Rum. In October of 1884, Juditha Popp and 5 of her children boarded the S.S. Elbe Express Steamer from the Moravia region in Austria. After over a month of travel by boat and rail, they settled near High Hill, Texas, and began a new life in the United States. Four generations later, the Popp family is proud to present High Hill Rum as a tribute to their family history. It all began with a dream sparked by a visit to a Rum distillery in Colorado in 2015. Their determination to create something special kept them moving forward to develop their distillery and tasting room, and today, they’re proud to share the fruits of their labor with you - High Hill Rum, crafted with care and a commitment to excellence. The Distillery is available to rent for private events. Visit their website and facebook page to learn more about their distillery, beautiful grounds, event schedule and more.
