PIKESVILLE RYE WHISKEY 110 PROOF 750ML

Pikesville Straight Rye Whiskey 110 Proof 750 mL

• Tasting / Profile
   • Produced by Pikesville (now under Heaven Hill Distillery) — a historic Maryland rye brand resurrected using Kentucky stock.
   • Bottled at 110 proof (55% ABV) and typically aged for 6 years.
   • Flavor profile: Dusty cocoa and oaky smoke on the nose; palate brings dry rye-spice, honeyed rye grain, clove and vanilla with baking-spice and oak finish. 

• Menu Versatility
   • Ideal neat or on a single large ice cube for guests seeking premium sipping rye.
   • Excellent for cocktails where bold rye flavor shines: upgrade your Manhattan, Rye Old Fashioned, Boulevardier etc—this bottle brings strong character.
   • Feature in whiskey or rye-centric flights: “High-Proof Rye Showcase” or “Premium Rye Upgrade” to educate guests and drive check averages.

• Operational Efficiency
   • Standard 750 mL format fits existing spirits rail/back-bar setups seamlessly.
   • The brand carries heritage recognition (Pikesville – historic rye) making staff training and guest sell-through straightforward.
   • Because of its broad appeal (high proof but drinkable) you can confidently bottle-service it or use it as a key premium pour without excessive turnover risk.

• Profit Potential
   • Positioned as a premium rye—allows a high by-the-glass price point and strong margin.
   • Use menu description emphasizing “110 proof”, “six years aged”, “Maryland rye legacy” to justify price premium.
   • Proposed upsell path: Standard rye → Pikesville 110 → Ultra-premium rye to create tiered spending options for guests.
   • Pair with high-margin side offerings (premium cigar, dessert, lounge seating) to amplify spend.
