Siwani Spirits, the award-winning producer of artisanal rice-based spirits, is thrilled to announce an exclusive tasting event at
The Wine Source in Baltimore, Maryland. Scheduled for Friday, February 28th, at 4 PM, this event heralds Siwani’s highly anticipated entry into the Maryland market, bringing its renowned gold-medal-winning spirits to local shelves for the first time.
Guided by the vision of founder Camylle Coley, Siwani Spirits proudly stakes its claim as Maryland's sole producer of premium rice spirits. This landmark occasion honors not only the brand's progression but also the deep cultural threads connecting Siwani to
Gullah Geechee heritage. Coley draws inspiration from this rich history, meticulously crafting spirits from the celebrated Carolina Gold rice—a grain once known as "the golden seed" and intricately linked to the traditions and legacy of the Gullah Geechee people.
During the event, guests will be invited to experience Siwani's flagship spirits, including Silva, a gold medal-winning, unaged 90-proof craft rice spirit with a remarkable 91-point rating, and **Clü**, a barrel-aged whiskey enhanced by cognac casks and set to launch at barrel proof by the end of March. These distinctive spirits are a testament to Siwani’s dedication to farm-to-bottle craftsmanship and its commitment to working with local, like-minded small businesses that share its values.
“We are delighted to introduce Siwani Spirits to Maryland through The Wine Source, a beloved staple of Hampden and Baltimore’s spirited community,” said Coley. “Our mission extends beyond making exceptional spirits; it’s about honoring a heritage, collaborating with other small businesses, and inspiring people to celebrate stories and traditions. This moment is about more than selling a product—it’s an invitation to everyone in Maryland to savor a legacy steeped in culture, innovation, and excellence.”
The timing of this event carries additional significance, aligning with the upcoming Economic Blackout, a movement dedicated to supporting small businesses, particularly those committed to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion. By attending the tasting, guests not only gain access to premium craft spirits but also actively participate in a broader initiative to uplift local businesses and create a positive cultural impact.
