Park Street Imports' $100 Million Pact with King Henri Christophe Spirits

MIAMI, February 5, 2025 – Park Street Imports, a top-tier alcohol distribution firm in the U.S., has announced a groundbreaking partnership valued at $100 million with King Henri Christophe Spirits LLC. This collaboration represents a pivotal milestone for the brand, owned by Emmanuel Fritz Paret and Dr. Rudolph Moise, who have crafted a premium whiskey deeply rooted in Haitian tradition and innovation.

The contract's value reflects the import and distribution licenses held by Park Street, which will enable King Henri Christophe Spirits to expand its production capacity and gain a strong foothold in the competitive U.S. spirits market.

Large-Scale Production and Distribution

Thanks to Park Street’s extensive import network, King Henri Christophe Spirits can now import large quantities of their handcrafted Haitian spirits, produced near the historic Citadelle Laferrière, directly into the United States. This access allows the production of up to 50,000 cases of Haitian spirit and aged American whiskey blends monthly, ensuring a steady supply for retailers, bars, and whiskey enthusiasts nationwide.

Park Street’s well-established infrastructure simplifies the complicated process of U.S. spirits imports. By adhering to regulations, managing logistics, and overseeing distribution, Park Street allows brands like King Henri Christophe to focus on their craft while ensuring their products reach consumers effectively.

A Blend of History and Excellence

King Henri Christophe Whiskey is a stunning fusion of Haitian heritage and American craftsmanship. The journey begins in Haiti, where Paret and Moise have revived rustic distilleries close to the historical Citadelle Laferrière, once the stronghold of Henri Christophe, Haiti’s king. The base spirit uses pure sugarcane juice and caramel, key ingredients in traditional Haitian spirits known as Kleren.

This base is then shipped to the U.S., where it is expertly blended with select 6- and 12-year-aged American whiskeys. The result is a premium spirit that honors its origins while catering to discerning whiskey consumers.

The Legend of the Special Reserve

Rumors surrounding an exotic reserve blend only enhance the brand's appeal. Reports indicate that casks discovered within Citadelle Laferrière might contain a 200-year-old spirit originally crafted for King Henri Christophe himself. If this exquisite blend, titled “King Henri Christophe, House of Clicquot Reserve,” is validated, it would represent a unique rarity in the fine spirits arena. Anticipated for release on December 1, 2025, this exclusive offering is expected to command a premium price.

Launch and Distribution

The inaugural product, King Henri Christophe 6-Year Aged Whiskey, is set to hit U.S. shelves on April 1, 2025. This launch signals the beginning of what is projected to be a profoundly successful distribution alliance with Park Street Imports.

A Legacy of Innovation

Emmanuel Fritz Paret’s personal history adds depth and character to the brand. As a descendant of the illustrious Clicquot family, he traces his lineage back to his great-grandmother, Marie Clicquot, born in 1910 and a third-generation granddaughter of Philippe Clicquot, founder of the iconic Champagne house, Veuve Clicquot, in 1672. “This deeply rooted legacy of craftsmanship, excellence, and innovation lives on in every bottle of King Henri Christophe Whiskey and is a testament to generations of refinement and tradition.”

A Sip of History

With its captivating backstory, meticulous craftsmanship, and ambitious plans, King Henri Christophe Whiskey is poised to carve out a niche in the premium spirits landscape. Enthusiasts and collectors alike eagerly await the opportunity to savor this unique blend of history and flavor. Stay tuned as King Henri Christophe's journey unfolds. Cheers to a taste of history in every sip!
