Distillery Information

The details are murky, but family lore has it that my great-great-great-grandfather, John Jacob Wight, took over a failing whiskey distillery in the Hunt Valley, north of Baltimore, Maryland, sometime during the 1850’s and began producing Sherwood Rye Whiskey. He built the distillery up and in 1868 sold a controlling interest to Edward Hyatt. Around that same time, our families merged, and the distillery continued to grow to the point that in the late 1870’s the US Army was stockpiling Sherwood Rye Whiskey for medicinal purposes.As the Second World War came to an end, Georges Bénitah and his brothers discovered whisky in Casablanca, where many American bases were located. Returning to Paris in the mid-1950s, they immediately decided they wanted to share this little-known product in France and it quickly became a passion.
