MARYLAND GUIDE TO SPIRITS

Armagnac: Armagnac is a result of the traditional distillation of white wine made of grapes from a few villages in South West of France. The name dates back to the gallo-roman times of Arminius. The first known distillation was in 1411 and first commercial activity involving Armagnac was registered in 1414 in France. There is no secret to making great Armagnac, but there is a great art. Armagnac has worldwide renown extending to 130 countries. The qualities and fullness are best enjoyed at the end of a good meal.

At each stage of production, they are using every possible means to maximize quality. “Quite simply, this is what Armagnac is all about.

Vodka: Many nations of the world have a singular drink that they have come to be identified with and that has come to be identified with them. For the French it is wine; the British and Germans have beer; the Japanese have sake; the Norwegians have aquavit. And, for Russians (and Poles, Belarusans, Finns and Ukrainians), it is vodka. “There cannot be not enough snacks, There can only be not enough vodka. There can be no silly jokes, There can only be not enough vodka. There can be no ugly women, There can only be not enough vodka. There cannot be too much vodka, There can only be not enough vodka.” -- Russian Saying

The Pommace is fermented and distilled in its natural state. The result is around 90 proof and clear in color. Grappa is dry and high in alcohol, with the flavors ranging from floral to earthy. It can have highlights of oak or juniper berries as well. Grappa is typically consumed after dinner as a digestif.

Fuligni: This beautiful property, surrounding a sixteenth-century Medici villa, was founded in 1923 by a descendant of the Venetian Fulignis. In fact, you can still see the city’s symbol, the lion of St. Marco, emblazoned on the labels. The family, however, has long been thoroughly Tuscan.

Maschio: The Maschio family has rightly been called "a dynasty of distillers": for over a century, the secrets of grappa-making have been passed on from father to son, from Antonio to Giuseppe to Bonaventura, who set up his own estate in these vine-ribbed hills of eastern Veneto. Today, Italo Maschio owns and runs what is still a family operation bearing its founder’s name, Bonaventura Maschio – with the same artisanal attention to detail, the same passion for excellence and daring research as when the Maschios began to make grappa history.

Rum: Rum is a product of the tropics, being created from sugar, molasses, or other sugar-industry products. The manufacturers add yeast to this, ferment it, and then distill the results. When rum is made, it is a clear drink. Many manufacturers then age or color the rum, bringing it to a more dark or golden state. Most aging takes place in barrels that once held whiskey or bourbon. Rum can be aged for as much as 30 years or more.

Doorly’s: From the House of Martin Doorly comes this rare rum of unparalleled excellence. Created through the time-old traditions of master blenders who have combined Barbados finest, oldest rums with a special second maturation.

Liqueurs: For the last thousand years distillers have been making liqueurs. They are often true artists in the way they select and combine the flavors of hundreds of different plants, herbs and spices. You can compare the designing of a good liqueur with the making of a painting. Distillers paint with flavors.

Mathilde: Mathilde liqueurs are traditional French fruit infusions of exceptional quality. Each pure liqueur is completely hand-processed using only the best fruits following a 300-year-old family recipe. The quality of the fruit is especially important when producing liqueurs. Since each variety of fruit is the reflection of its own soil, Mathilde takes great care to select the best place of origin in each category.

Inga Amaro Mio: A superb, rare herbal liqueur from Distillerie Inga & C. S.r.l. of Serravalle Scrivia, Italy. According to the historic records of Distillerie Inga, the recipe was created by Vincislao, a Capuchin monk in India, who was trying to find a cure for a series of epidemics, which struck Calcutta, Bombay and other Indian cities in the early 1700s. While it is not recorded that the formula worked, it produced a delicious, rare delight, and continues to do so. ANTICO AMARO was rediscovered in 1832 by Leopoldo Inga, the founder of Distillerie Inga, and is unchanged in 290 years.

Single Malt Scotch: Of all the spirits mankind has distilled, refined and enhanced from nature’s huge store of goodness, Scotch whisky is the noblest. It is a natural drink, a distillation of the riches with which Scotland is so abundantly endowed - of fields of golden barley and wheat; of clear waters tumbling down glens of granite and over moors of peat; and of the cool, pure air of Scotland.

Bunnahabhain: Bunnahabhain (meaning 'mouth of the river') shares its name with the village that grew up around it. In effect, development of the distillery created a community dependent upon it for employment.

Ledaig / Tobermory: The Ledaig Single Malt Whisky is distilled from a distillery located on the very scenic Isle of Mull. The distillery was initially named ‘Ledaig’ in 1798 by John Sinclair (who introduced the distillery).
