Firefly Distillery Tees Off at PGA Championship


The 94th PGA Championship at The Ocean Course at Kiawah Island Golf Resort is less than a week away, and Firefly Distillery is asking golf enthusiasts to drink local while enjoying this monumental event. From Thursday, August 9 until Sunday, August 12, Firefly Sweet Tea Bourbon and the three flavors of Sea Island Rum will be available in the Wannamaker Club Tent at the Championship. 


Firefly Sweet Tea Bourbon, combines two southern favorites for a perfect cocktail. Made with handcrafted straight bourbon whiskey from the world-renowned Buffalo Trace Distillery in Frankfort, Kentucky, Firefly Sweet Tea Bourbon is infused with authentic South Carolina tea and real Louisiana sugarcane. 





Sea Island Rums are unique, all-natural rums handcrafted at Firefly Distillery on Wadmalaw Island. Sea Island Rums are sold exclusively in South Carolina and include three delicious flavors: Gold Rum, Java Rum and Spice Rum.  Using sugar cane from South Carolina, Florida and Louisiana, then aging the rum in bourbon barrels creates a unique flavor. Utilizing a Lowcountry twist is key for Firefly Distillery, which is why they use sugar cane from famed Johns Island resident and Rosebank Farms owner, Sidi Limehouse. Each rum has its own distinct flavor and can be served over ice or mixed in your favorite cocktail. Sea Island Rum contributes a percentage from each bottle sold to charities that promote clean water. The annual charitable cause is highlighted on the back of each bottle and website.





Sea Island Gold Rum uses Johns Island sugar cane and is aged for two years in Buffalo Trace Bourbon Barrels. This smooth rum has hints of oak, bourbon and vanilla.







Sea Island Spice Rum uses our Sea Island Gold Rum as the base, and then a blend of natural spices is added to create a distinct flavor. Taste the hints of vanilla, oak, butterscotch and bourbon. 












Sea Island Java Rum combines two island favorites, coffee and rum for an exquisite taste. We use 100% Colombian coffee and infuse this with our Sea Island Gold Rum. 



Drink Local and showcase a true local champion in your back yard! 
Guests can also take advantage of the Firefly drink specials at Red’s at Bohicket Marina during the championship as well.

Farewell to Dean Stephens of WCIV-TV

  Working in local TV news was something I wanted to do since I was a child...ask my parents, I would stage interviews and anchor from the couch in our ranch-style home when we had smooth wood hugging the TV and its 4 channels. ABC, NBC, CBS & PBS during the 1980s. My dad is a news lover and from a young age, I always watched news. Most parents in today's world would say "She's too young. You can't expose kids to that!" But when did a Nelson truly listen to other people? I grew up watching Charleston TV news. I idolized local reporters during Hurricane Hugo like Cathy O'Hara, had a crush on Dan Krosse and was even scared to walk up to Kellen Butler when we were both at the Music Farm. Local TV was different back then in the 90s/2000s. I've told the story often but, humor me here... I was dating my boyfriend-now-husband, Darren, and was the traffic reporter for ABC News 4 in Charleston. I had never been a traffic reporter until then, but figured when I ...
