The Mount Vernon Maryland Rye, Bottled in Bond Pint from 1929 is a rare survivor of pre-Prohibition American whiskey heritage. Distilled at the historic Hannis Distilling Co. in Baltimore, this rye was aged a full 12 years and released at 100 proof in accordance with the Bottled in Bond Act, ensuring authenticity and quality. The label’s notation of “For Medicinal Purposes Only” is a direct reflection of the Prohibition era, when whiskey could be legally sold by prescription. The original striped box and intact tax strip add to its historical allure, offering a tangible connection to a time when Maryland rye was among the most sought-after in the country. This bottle is a prized piece for collectors, encapsulating a significant era in American spirits history, right as the country prepared to end Prohibition.
