Description
An unaged whiskey made from 100% locally-sourced rye, Rock Creek White Whiskey is a flavorful, Pennsylvania-style whiskey that bursts with bold, peppery notes. Bottled at 99 proof and comprised of organically-grown Maryland rye and Virginia-grown malted rye, this whiskey has the chops to shine through in any cocktail and is a must have for the serious home bartender.
Our whiskey’s namesake, Rock Creek Park, is one of the best-loved treasures of DC – one of the first federally managed parks, it’s a place that everyone who lives here values and enjoys. Rock Creek Park connects the city to nature and reminds us of what was here before there was a Washington, DC.
Before it was designated a National Park, Rock Creek was populated by farms and several mills along the creek, including the historic Peirce Mill, dating back to the 18th century. These mills ground locally grown crops, including corn, wheat and rye. Rock Creek White Whiskey pays tribute to this piece of the city’s history while bringing innovation and technology to create a whiskey that will become a new and enduring piece of the capital’s history.
