New Liberty Distillery Melvale Straight Rye Whiskey, 75 cl

The Melvale Distillery, maker of Melvale Rye Whiskey, was located in the Jones Falls section of Baltimore by John T. Cummings in the 1880s. One of the original buildings remains intact, although the site no longer distills alcohol. Melvale Pure Rye was one of the most premium of the pre-prohibition Maryland Ryes. In its day, the Melvale brand became one of the most prestigious and respected of Maryland’s rye whiskeys. Our Melvale Straight Rye’s mash bill is 51% rye and 49% malted barley to capture the bright and grassy flavor and softer finish of the old Maryland rye brands. It’s aged three years in new American oak barrels and hand bottled at 90 proof. This medium body spirit is true to its roots, with a great balance between the initial sweetness, muted rye spiciness and oak influence both on the nose and in the initial sip. It starts with honey and vanilla notes but finishes with a softened note of rye spice and a taste of cinnamon, pepper, and sweet honey.

Product Description

New Liberty Distillery is located in a vibrant north Philadelphia neighborhood, just minutes from Center City. Our building once served as a stable, and much of its architecture, including the horse stalls, have been preserved. The building now provides a home to our custom-made still, as well as the rick house where we barrel age our whiskey.
