Our interview with Owner Max Lents of Baltimore Spirits Co was filled with so much interesting information we had to turn this into two episode. Our first episode dives into the early days at Baltimore Spirits Co — finding their niche, financing a dream, and becoming the first rye distillery in the second generation of rye distilleries in the state of Maryland. Their attention to the process of distilling will delight you, as will their nerdy search for the history of rye whiskey. This led the three owners — Ian Newton, Max Lents, and Eli Breitburg-Smith -- to create Epoch Rye. Not only did it raise interest among whiskey and rye whiskey enthusiasts in Baltimore; Epoch Rye gained national attention by winning Double Gold Medal winner at San Fransisco World Spirits Competition at the time of their original release.
