This 29-Acre Farm Distillery Is Embracing the Terroir of Montgomery County
"While terroir is a widely talked about for wine, Draheim and Harris are passionate about the terroir of spirits too. "We believe deeply, in a sense, in the flavor of place," says Harris. "We think the flavors of Montgomery county in our backyard-the heirloom corn and the special rye varieties that we're using already-that these flavors just help us make innovative, outstanding, world-class spirits.""
"Song Dog will sell some locally produced food on site, including cheeses, but will also invite in food trucks during busier times and encourage guests to bring their own snacks or picnics. "One of the things we're most excited about doing is being able to build community," says Draheim. The kid- and dog- friendly distillery will offer programming toward that aim, ranging from short tours for the causal day-tripper to classes and more detailed tours for the spirit enthusiast."
Song Dog Farm Distillery opens on a 29-acre farm in Boyds, Maryland with a 5,500-square-foot distillery producing bourbon, rye, gin, vodka, and liqueurs. The distillery uses grains grown on-site or sourced from another Montgomery County farm to emphasize terroir-driven flavors from heirloom corn and special rye varieties. On-site offerings include tours, tastings, cocktail classes, low- and non-alcoholic cocktails, and cocktails designed with Danny Childs using seasonal local ingredients. The tasting room sells local cheeses, hosts food trucks, and welcomes picnics. Family- and dog-friendly programming aims to build community with varied tour and class options.
