Gunpowder Rye Whiskey draws its inspiration from our rich heritage of rye whiskey production: brewed from local grains and distilled in small batches on our traditional copper pot still. Gunpowder is a spicy Maryland style rye with toasted malt flavor and big barrel character. The finish is long with vanilla and chocolate notes.,The Maryland-style ryes are just rye and barley, which gives them a kind of spicy character with a nice herbal quality.,
