Rye holds a prominent place in the agricultural history of the Mid-Atlantic region and was even a significant crop for George Washington at Mount Vernon. Washington was smart enough to distill most of his estate grown rye and went on to have the largest distillery in the country at the time of his death in 1799. After a long hiatus, we’re proud to have released the first rye whiskey distilled and bottled in the District since Prohibition and to bring this signature terroir back to our region.  We put our own spin on this classic spirit by using a large portion of malted rye in the mash bill, which helps this whiskey appeal to a wide range of drinkers.  It is smooth enough to sip neat or on the rocks, while being assertive enough to stand out in your favorite cocktail.
