About Ben Lyon:

Ben Lyon is the Master Distiller & Co-Founder of Lyon Distilling Company in Saint Michaels, Maryland. Ben learned to distill over a decade ago in New England, after experimenting with home brewing. His love of fine spirits, passion for booze making, rum swilling & sailing, inspired him to start a distillery. Ben’s unique ideas for recipes and careful approach to ultra-small batch distillation are reflected in every bottle. One of his goals is to blend innovative techniques with traditional methods to create one-of-a-kind spirits – redefining what makes an exceptional rum or whiskey – and producing bottles that are worthy of a spot on his own bar, as well as yours.

About Lyon Distilling Company:

Lyon Distilling Company is a micro distillery located in Saint Michaels, Maryland, steps from the Chesapeake Bay. Founded in 2012, the distillery launched with a signature line of rums paying tribute to the rich, spirited traditions of the Eastern Shore. Hand-crafted from start to finish, Lyon spirits begin as intentionally-sourced raw ingredients, and are hand-crafted – mashed, fermented, and double-distilled in small pot stills – every step of the way, resulting in a superior and unique final product. The goal is to create distinctly American spirits – working to define the category of new American rum, and perfecting Maryland Rye Whiskey & American Malt Whiskey, while experimenting with obscure grains and varied finishes.
