INVEST IN BARROW’S INTENSE
Award-winning ginger liqueur handmade in Brooklyn.
Barrow’s Intense is made with only 4 ingredients: fresh ginger, water, sugar and neutral cane spirit. No chemicals, no preservatives, no heat and not filtered, meaning what you get is unadulterated ginger flavor. That ginger kick has won us Best in Class at the SIP Awards, 4 Stars from Bev X and an A+ rating from Good Spirit News.

OUR AMBITION
Barrow’s Intense started out in a kitchen, made in small batches just for friends. Today our partnership with Seralles USA makes us the only nationally-distributed craft ginger liqueur on the market. Barrow’s Intense wants to be the Sam Adams of craft spirits: a staple on every bartenders’ shelf and a go-to ingredient for any home.
WHY I LIKE BARROW’S INTENSE
Every investor has a way of analyzing opportunity. For me, the idea must resonate deep inside my gut, which is exactly what Barrow’s Intense does, quite literally. Josh is the sherpa who knows how to use every ounce of gumption and grit, not to mention super size smarts and creativity, to elevate his idea and then ultimately raise it to some goal post whereby everyone wished they had invested more. I bet on Josh Morton because he is a founder who meets my investment criteria and who actually gives a damn about every person in the equation, which is a rare find. Both Josh and his product Barrow’s Intense are thoroughly original, unique and full of integrity.
THE BUZZ ABOUT BARROW’S INTENSE
Barrow’s Intense checks all the right boxes: meticulously handcrafted, superb packaging, perfect positioning and unrivaled taste. I didn’t know such a flavor existed. Who knew that such an INTENSELY good product could be derived from the most common of ingredients? Of course, the rest of us could attempt to replicate Barrow’s a thousand times with a thousand methods and still not come close to achieving what Josh Morton has here. The “secret sauce” as it were, is Josh himself.

Newer names like St-Germain, Barrow’s Intense ginger liqueur and RumChata cream liqueur have helped expand the mixologist’s cocktail toolbox and open up a world of new drinks options with a nod to the classics.
NO ONE DOES GINGER LIKE US
We use 200 Lbs of ginger in every single batch. That unadulterated ginger flavor is what landed us a partnership with Serralles USA, making us the only nationally distributed craft ginger liqueur on the market.
THE COMPETITION IS WEAK
Barrow’s Intense uses a neutral cane base, so the flavor is pure ginger. Unlike our main competitors, Barrow’s Intense can be combined with all spirits, increasing application and usage. We are the only nationally distributed craft ginger liqueur.
Competition: King’s Ginger
- Distilled ginger flavored whiskey
- Limited mix-ability due to whiskey base
- Strong alcohol taste
Us: Barrow’s Intense
- 200 lbs of ginger in every batch
- Mixes with all base spirits and drinks straight
- Bottle designed for bartender use and reuse
Competition: Domain de Canton
- Weak ginger flavor
- Cognac base doesn’t mix with all liquors
- Bottle not bartender-friendly
“Barrow’s Intense is absolutely a great liqueur—the fact that literally overnight I could put together five cocktails featuring it speaks to its versatility.”
