This is another of the craft distilleries
that are making a huge dent in the larger and imported rum sales here in the
United States. I love that there are so
many of these artisan distilleries are doing very well.
Allegheny Distilling celebrates the
beginning of its fifth year of production, it has rebranded its core
lineup of Maggie's Farm Rums, including the White, Spiced, and
"50/50" Dark (formerly "La Revuelta") rums. Utilizing the
original artwork created by Hannah Clark for the Maggie's Farm Queen's Share
Reserve rums, Maggie's Farm has streamlined the skeletal design across this
core lineup. New branding is currently available for purchase directly from the
distillery, and is now beginning to roll into existing distribution markets,
including Pennsylvania Fine Wine and Spirits stores, also the Nashville area
via wholesaler Tennessee Wine and Spirits.
As the new branding makes its way
out, Allegheny Distilling has also expanded its distribution footprint to
include Washington DC, Maryland, and Delaware markets, each carried by Craft
Wine and Spirits of Beltsville, MD. Allegheny Distilling has also come to
a distribution agreement with Lauber Imports of New York, a craft
portfolio of Southern Glazers in NY. Products going into distribution include
the White, Spiced, and 50/50 Dark rums, as well as the silver Queen's Share
Reserve rum, Airline Overproof rum, and Maggie's Farm's new coffee liqueur and
fresh ingredient falernum. Maggie's Farm rums may also be purchased for direct
shipment across the USA by various DC retail outlets.
Maggie's Farm Rum is the first
commercially-available Pennsylvania-made craft rum since Prohibition. All
spirits are made from scratch, from the fermentations of raw sugar cane from
Louisiana, rather than molasses, and pot-distilled for full body and flavor on
the Spanish-made copper stills located behind the distillery's cocktail bar.
The distillery is open for tastings and bottle sales Wednesday through Sunday
and serves craft cocktails Thursday through Sunday.
