I've been to the Baltimore Spirits Company a few times, most recently this past Sunday for one their "Blend Your Own Whiskey Tour Experience" (more on that below). Baltimore Spirits Company is a distillery (they produce rye whiskey, gins, apple brandies, apple brandy liqueur, amaros, and more), and they have a great tasting room (they call it a cocktail gallery) where you can enjoy cocktails made from their spirits (as well as pick up bottles) at Union Collective. It's a large space, so you can definitely come with a group. It's also fun to do a crawl (wine at the Wine Collective, cocktails at Baltimore Spirits Company, and beer at Union Craft). The space is great, the cocktails are fun, and the service is good! A fun tasting room to spend a few hours at with friends or family! The "Blend Your Own Whiskey Tour Experience" was great. It's an hour and a half (but we hovered for a table at a while after it ended) and starts with a tour of the distillery and an explanation about Maryland Rye (which I knew nothing about). Then we went back to the tasting room where we had a tasting of four of their rye whiskeys, which we then blended using a pipette, until we each determined our preferred blend (I went 50/50, but others I was with did a more complicated blend - anything in increments of 5% works)! And then we went home with a bottle of our blends. And not a tiny bottle, either. Greg, who was our guide during our experience, was great - answered a ton of questions, was really friendly and helpful. At about $60 per person, I think it was a great deal - a fun experience, I learned a lot, and left with a whole bottle of my blend! Fun local distillery - definitely worth a visit for shopping for bottles, drinking some cocktails, or a distillery visit or experience!
10/10 experience! For my boyfriend's Christmas gift, I got him the Blend Your Own Whiskey tour, and he could not stop talking about how much fun it was and what a cool gift/date night it turned out to be. We started off with a delicious welcome drink while learning a little bit about the history of Baltimore whiskey. They then take you on a tour of the distillery, and I've been to a handful of distillery tours, but this one was my favorite just because of how personal and small it felt. It felt intimate and hands-on, not rushed or scripted. After the tour, you come back and start the process of creating your own 375ml bottle of whiskey. I'm personally not a big whiskey drinker, so I created a bottle for my boyfriend, which he loved. He especially enjoyed being able to try different whiskeys and learn what he really liked. If you have a whiskey drinker in your life, this is the perfect gift. Our tour guide (I didn't catch her name) was very attentive and a great storyteller. I hope to come back another time to grab drinks and explore more of the area!!
My wife and I stop in every couple of months or so to pick up a bottle or two for home. A pleasant crew is always there to chat and take care of business. We usually visit on a late or early Wednesday afternoon; however, this time we drove down on a Sunday. The cocktail room is large and airy with plenty of tables and a modest bar...a very relaxing environment.
I came here for a drag show and enjoyed every second of my experience. The bartenders were very sweet. I also loved the atmosphere, the chairs and lighting were so cute. My only gripe is that the drink menu included a drink that supposedly tasted just like cherry coke, but that was a bit misleading. Other than that, I throughly enjoyed my experience! I will definitely come back to this hidden gem.
Definitely an experience, you wants to book their whiskey tasting. You get a live personal tour on how a whiskey is made in the history of their company. You also get to pick and make your own whiskey. Such a great experience for whiskey lovers. Parking is also available on site. Customer service is also great everyone that works. There is very friendly and informative on everything.
Stopped her for a drink after yoga it was open we saw bottles we walked in. The bartender was amazing. I opted for the apple flight which was only $8 for small tastes of different apple spirits .... The bartender was kind enough to mix the two I didn't like straight so I didn't waste the likka lol Nice tasting room they also do tours that come with a welcome cocktail ... good to know in the future.
Purchased two tickets for the Whiskey Tour, Tasting, & Make-Your-Own Experience for my husband & myself- Overall, the experience was a great date night- allowed to bring own food, we got to the spot early to enjoy our dinner in the ambiance of the art gallery the tour was very informative; starting with a welcome cocktail (bartender's choice) to sip while we heard the deep history of MD Rye, then moving to a history/tour of the distillery-learning about the entire process of whiskey creation, then ending with a variety finishing tasting board (4 4oz pours) complete with a pipet and empty glass intended for us to play around with creating and balancing our own whiskey. after the experience, the bartender was super friendly, hanging around to answer additional questions about whiskey & offer some tastings of their bottled to-go options (noting after the tour anything would be 10% off including to-go or additional cocktails) variety included gin, brandy, apple brandy liquors, whiskeys, bitters, & specialty alcoholic mixers while all the experience was delightful, the taste profiles of their offerings weren't really appealing to us- a lot of the cocktails had overly sweet mixers- the liquors, bitters, and specialties were overly sweet, and we weren't super impressed with the whiskey palate compared to our go-tos I would suggest-when touring/learning about the distillery in the cold months, maybe just do a tour then go back to the warm area to give the long speech- ~30mins in the cold wasn't as fun, but I did really appreciate the in-depth discussion would suggest for a one-time specialty date night, but I wouldn't go there for regular cocktails- especially with Union's good beer nearby- just a personal flavor choice.
This like my cheers a fancy cheers but a cheers nonetheless. I come here too often to not have given this place its just due. 1. I love that this is in the Hampden area behind all the good restaurants 2. I love that this is next to a great winery and even better ice cream 3. The drinks are always creative and well made with local spirits distilled in house 4. They have whiskey blending classes, tours, and special occasion parties where you get to try some of their older bottles! I think my homegirl Raven T said it best. If they had food I really would never leave but BSC does think about everyone and when they put on a thing they will cover you with food. I love that Chuck's Trading Post is a pretty constant option right outside the door when they are having a Luau! BSC is such a nice space with great drinks you should go!
This was my Mother's Day gift to myself and Im so glad I did it--Such an informative whiskey tasting and blend session! Greg led us through the history of rye whiskey in Maryland and he's definitely someone who loves what he does. The welcome drink was strong, the setup for the blend was perfectly designed where nothing was left behind. Each of us had the time to really enjoy each whiskey while also having fun. After the tour, we had full run of the bar where we could sample different types not featured on the tour. Definitely coming back again with friends!
What a fun afternoon! I got my hubby a tour and custom blend visit as a Xmas gift and we finally got around to going. First let me say it was super easy to reschedule which I had to do. Second it was no big deal for me to just tag along. We walked in and were immediately offered a welcome cup of punch. Super tasty and fresh. And packed a (wait for it) punch. We then got a tour of the distillery space. Then it's back to the bar to build your custom bottle of rye. I'm not a whiskey girl but my husband nerded out and enjoyed the whole process. I killed time with a glass of their slushee of the month. Fresh, ginger and lemony, mint. So so good. The staff was amazing and we had a Smaltimore moment. Definitely need to go back! Can't be the location either with all the other businesses in that building.
The disservice that I've done to the Yelp community by not writing this review sooner is nearly unspeakable (insert guttural cries). This is my absolute favorite place in Baltimore! If they had food, I'd never leave! I've been a fan since 28th St and their single still. You know when they were Baltimore Whiskey Co but didn't sell whiskey yet. Yep, I was there at the beginning! You literally cannot go wrong. The spirits are creative yet true to Maryland's distilling history. They're bold but easily translate to cocktails. The drinks are imaginative and the staff is knowledgeable. You can tell the distillers love their work and inspire their employees to do the same. The whiskey blending classes are great and you'll likely get something different every time. On special occasions (like they're 7th anniversary party), they bust out the older bottles. You can taste and no doubt LOVE something you'll never be able to have again! Its the best! lol
Such a special place at the union collective in Hampden. They make an awesome gin, and I've been told it's been a distillery for quite a while with a redo. I've been here for a pop up in the past with NiHao and most recently for the holiday market. I love getting bottles of their Szechuan amaro for gifts. They had quite a bit of rum bottles for the holidays. We sat at the bar for drinks - the eggnog was a bit too thick so I cut it with ice and the samples of Apple brandy was nice but very strong! It's a small bar. One main bar and tables. Not much in terms of a vibe but a lovely distillery and supporting local!
Kentucky Bourbon and Maryland Rye are the only two American alcohols defined and regulated by government. For Maryland Rye the Baltimore Spirits company is the oldest selling alcohol for over 6 years. Unique to the Baltimore Spirits company is a gin made with whisky, the 4 bitters they make (1,2,3,4)- Szechuan, chamomile and two others. They also make apple based mezcal and apple brandy. No food. Mixed drinks served at 5 pm. Distillery tours Wednesday and weekends. Great place!!!
My sister and I recently treated my dad to the Blend Your Own Whiskey experience with Baltimore Spirits Company, and needless to say he had a blast. I've patroned BSC a handful of times and they are actually one of my go-to cocktail bars when in the area. But I had yet to try their tour and I figured there was no better time than as a gifted class to my dad for Father's Day. We were welcomed with a cocktail as we chose our seats and got settled in for a little history on whiskey and a tour of BSC's distillery. It's always nice to kick off a tour with a tasty drink in hand. After a nice history lesson by our tour guide, we made our way to the distillery room, which was quite warm, but pretty neat to see how they small batch their whiskey. It was time to cool down and make our way back to the cocktail room where our whiskey tasting set-ups were already prepared for each person. This is where the fun began. Our tour guide led us through how to taste the different whiskey and find the various notes in each to determine what we liked best. It was like playing mad scientist to find your perfect blend to have bottled. Once we settled on our blend and ratios, the staff took our tags to bottle our personal creations, and we grabbed another drink while we waited. Aside from stopping into Baltimore Spirits Co. for a nice cocktail, take a tour, and blend your own bottle to really get a feel of how the whiskey is made. read more
What an AMAZING way to end my birthday celebration, with a tour and the chance to create my own bottle of whiskey! The ticket includes a behind-the-scenes tour of where the magic happens, a drink, and a bottle of whiskey that you get to create yourself. Yes, it felt like being back in chemistry class all over again, but way more fun! The venue itself is beautifully decorated. There's a large bar area where you can sit and enjoy a drink, and they also sell snacks (which is definitely a plus because no one should drink on an empty stomach). There's a restroom near the bar, plus additional bathrooms down the hall connected to the venue. They also have an area where they display the bottles of whiskey they sell. *I purchased a bottle of Eubie's Knees to make hot toddies when sick* The location is in a warehouse-style district with other establishments nearby if you want to explore before or after your visit. I noticed an ice cream shop and a coffee shop, which adds to the overall experience. Greg, our tour guide, was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the entire whiskey-making process. I thoroughly enjoyed myself and would absolutely come back to do this again! read more
A great experience. I would definitely recommend for a date night or a small group activity. The evening started with a check-in inside of the tasting room and a cocktail while you wait for everyone to arrive for the tour. This evening it was their house punch, but I'm not sure if that's always the same welcome cocktail every time . Once everyone who scheduled the same time slot as you arrives you will start off with a tour of the warehouse. The tour guide will give you a brief history of the distillery and explain their distilling process. The tour was definitely informative and interesting. After that, you will head to the tasting room where your blending flight has been placed on one of the tables for you. You will have a small pipette to get samples from the four options that you have. Once you have selected, you'r perfect blend one of the bartenders or employees will take it back to the distillery to mix your own personalized bottle for you to take home. Even after you're done, you're more than welcome to hang out in the tasting room and order another cocktail or look through some of the merchandise they have for sale. read more

I popped in to this establishment while I was visiting Union for their anniversary party. When I'd had enough beer, I ambled down the Collective until I found Baltimore Spirits. While the outside of the building is fairly unimpressive, the inside of this venue is super cute! It's a big space, with a nice bar to the right, and a bunch of tables and chairs scattered about. I didn't place an order at the bar, a friend ordered the non-alcoholic beverage for me, but I am sure service was great. What I can say is the non-alcoholic beverage was a delight and I relished every drop! My group did not stay long but I enjoyed the space and the ambiance. Will definitely return. read more

We had an awesome experience grabbing cocktails at BSC today with friends. It was busy but the bartenders were friendly and efficient. You cannot go wrong with any of their gin drinks. I love gin and their's just tastes different. The vibes were awesome. The decor and lighting would make it a great place for date night or an elevated happy hour. I loved the info in their menu about the intentionality behind their decor! We'll definitely be back! read more

So this is not the cheapest tour but boy is it the the tastiest I took my dad here for his birthday and he was blown away by the experience! I recommend you make a reservation for their private tour and tasting on the weekends. Space is limited in order to make the experience unique! They take you through the process of Rye until it reaches the bottle. And you come back to a tasting experience where you get to be the mixologist of your own personal bottle. Once you write your percentages down and turn it in you get a custom made bottle to take home! There is a guide to help you sort the notes to each liquor which helped me a lot! Overall I do plan to come back and hopefully bring some one new! We also bought their spicy chocolate liqueur and their EPOCH RYE that I took a picture of! read more
I've been before they opened their new cocktail gallery and as always I'm never disappointed!! This time I went for a tour, tasting and blending experience and I highly recommend. We started with a welcome drink in the cocktail gallery that was gin based and so good! The got to hear a brief history on American Rye and the Baltimore spirits company. We then moved into the barrel room where we got to learn about the rye making process and back to the cocktail gallery to taste the rye's and create a special blend of our own. I do wish I had a dropper so I could be more precise with my mixing but overall I enjoyed the experience and the blend I created. They then bottled and sealed it for me to take home! I'll be so sad when I drink it and won't be able to repurchase my own special blend. read more

My companion is a whiskey buff and we took a tour of the distillery over the weekend. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We learned a lot, and after the tour we got a flight of whiskey to try and then we mixed our own bottles to take home. It was a good experience, and the other couples were enjoying themselves as well. Definitely a good experience. . read more
Every time I'm on 83 I always see this building and been curious. On google I found a whiskey tour and blending event and had no idea it was held in this mystery building. I was very pleased with my experience! I learn a lot about the craft behind a great whiskey and blending my own whiskey was super dope. You can also stop by at the bar for a casual drink and catch up. read more

Baltimore Spirits Company is inside the Union Collective. On weekends, it seems like parking is pretty difficult to find if you don't get there early. It's a large area with a big parking lot, but because it's located inside the Union Collective, there are other shops and stores that the Baltimore Spirits Company shares a parking lot with. That said, we parked along the street in a neighborhood nearby, as we saw many others doing. When we went, the Apple Festival was also happening, so other places in the Union Collective were having cool specials or events. They served a special smoked pommeau spirit. Pommeau, traditionally made in the Normandy region of France, uses a similar distilling process to port or sherry, but instead of starting from grapes, it starts with partially fermented apple juice. To add a special signature flavor and style, the fermented juice comes from the smoked apple fermentations used in their Mescal-style Apple Brandy. It was truly something different. All the staff there were attentive and super friendly. They were excited to be introducing their spirits and serving guests. Although they were very busy, we were so impressed with their service and enthusiasm. My boyfriend tried a flight of Epoch Whiskeys, which according to him were pretty good. They had a ton of different spirits to sample too. I believe they run free tours of the distillery every hour on Saturday from 1-5pm. Baltimore Spirits Company is definitely a fun spot to hang out and try some local spirits distilled right at the source. We learned a lot from the staff and were very pleased with the service. We'll definitely take our out of town friends here for a visit! read more
Wait: None. It was a mid Sunday afternoon. We were actually the only ones here. It was a game day so that makes sense. Server: She was awesome! My friend and I had been discussing all the murder shows that are on and she joined right in. We had a hilarious convo about spirits and haunted Baltimore. Food Quality& Order: I couldn't indulge in anything as nothing here is Gluten Free alcohol wise. However, you can do a free tasting of up to 4 options or a $30-ish tasting of everything they offer! Atmosphere& Decor: SUPER cool spot. I love the old time feel it has. Almost feels like people shouldn't be there but we can be! Haha Tons of awesome bar items to buy. A must visit if you have a bar at home or want one. read more

Awesome new cocktail bar it's a must try! There are so many different options, can't wait to come back and try all these out! The atmosphere is awesome, very fun and relaxing. Lots of fun art work and lights that look like they go with the music! Definitely worth checking out, it's across from the wine collective and at the end of the union collective building. read more

Decided to venture to The Baltimore Spirits Company for one of their Whiskey tours where you get to make your own custom blend to take home! The event started with a welcome cocktail made with their rye whiskey (didn't catch the name). The cocktail was delish and a bit smokey on the back end (I will be back to try other cocktails from their bar)! From there we were given the history of Maryland Rye Whiskey by one of the extremely knowledgeable employees! After that, we started the tour of their in-house distillery. I have been on many wine tours but never a Whiskey distillery tour so getting to see and understand the process from beginning to end was nice. After the tour, we were taken back to the bar room to begin making our personal custom blend of whiskey. I will admit I am a cocktail girl through and through - lol, but my husband is an on-the-rocks guy so he was living for finding the different "notes" in the different rye batches. To help "cocktail" folks like me, you are given water and can use the provided droppers to make the taste less "harsh" - lol. When you are satisfied with your blended whiskey, you give your "formula" to the staff and they bottle up your blend in a beautiful Rye Whiskey bottle to take home! Overall, a great Saturday activity for whiskey lovers! read more

SUCH a cool place with something very special. Can't believe I almost walked by without stopping in, but luckily I saw the sign advertising a tasting at the last second and stepped inside. I was able to try their offerings on a couple of occasions, and the highlights were: -Rye whiskey, 6th batch - really something special. Apparently distilled in the manner of scotch, with some rich chocolate and some balanced sweetness I guess from the oak (I'm far from an expert.... notes of honey? caramel? port???). I'm usually a scotch or bourbon drinker, but I immediately wanted to take this home. -Pear brandy "singularity"- a delicate thing, fascinating. Almost felt like a tiny licorice at the end -"Pumila" smoked apple brandy - this one's an easy win for me -- campfire smoke + apples = fall. Came together so nicely. -Barrel aged gin - strong classic juniper (plus some other additions like green tea, tho I'm not sure I quite got it) with a barrel aging that pushed it smoothly into whiskey territory. Thought it'd make a great negroni/boulevardier crossover cocktail -Schezuan liquor - really cool, got slight spice and numbing (though I would have loved more) - Fernet - so I thought I wasn't into Fernet (Branca) but their version is a less medicinal version that felt sippable I felt very lucky that two of the staff were patiently willing to answer all my questions and hang out with me until the end. (I was able to find Eli's name online, but forgot his associate's name--sad since she was so upbeat and welcoming!) What a great representation of the passion and spirit of the business. Thanks, guys! read more

Can I purchase Gift Certificates? What is the cost per person for a tour and tasting? I want to give them as Birthday and Christmas gifts.
Gift certs...I do not know....but probably yes. Tour and a bottle, around $50. BTW: great gift idea.
