Sangfroid Rye Whiskey 375ml

Maryland rye whiskey, as a unique and distinct product, has a long history. The problem is, the history is a little murky, and our reading of it even more so. How is Maryland rye different from Pennsylvania rye, or Monongahela rye? Was George Washington making anything similar to what we know today as rye whiskey? How can a three-chamber still, introduced more than 200 years after rye whiskey had first been made in the region, define the style? We’re not really sure, so we fall back on what we know.



Our approach to our rye whiskey reflects our approach to making spirits – use the best ingredients we can get, treat them properly and carefully, and transform them into a spirit that reflects the place, the moment, and the people of our community. That means sourcing our rye and malted barley from farms in Maryland, grown by farmers we know. We sour the mash, distill it twice through a pot still, and then age the spirit in charred, new American oak barrels. It’s “young,” in the sense that Kentucky would like you to believe, but Maryland rye is meant to be young. It all starts and ends in Maryland. That, to us, is Maryland rye whiskey. - Producer
