Smoked Single Malt Massachusetts Whiskey - Released Friday, May 23rd at Damnation Alley Distillery
Damnation Alley Distillery is releasing our newest aged whiskey - a Smoked Single Malt - on Friday, May 23 at 4pm. Available exclusively at the distillery, this whiskey is 100% barley malt (Valley Malt, Hadley, MA) that's been cherry wood smoked. It has a subtle early smoke flavor with strong nutty toffee notes, and a slight mace finish. We're not making any promises, but if you get there early, you might just find yourself on television!
The whiskey is available in both 375ml ($40) and 1 liter ($100) bottles.
Damnation Alley Distillery spirits are brewed, mashed, fermented, distilled and bottled on-site at the distillery located at 7 Brighton Street in Belmont, MA. We are 100% all grain and use no neutral grain spirits, ever, in any of our products. All our spirits are available for sale only at the distillery.

Operating on a grain to glass philosophy, Damnation Alley Distillery distills craft spirits made solely from local grains and produce from farms throughout Massachusetts. Purveyors include Four Star Farms (Northfield, MA), Mainstone Farm (Wayland, MA), Valley Malt (Hadley, MA), Wellfleet Sea Salt Company (Wellfleet, MA) as well as Urbivores, an urban homestead in Belmont, MA.
The company is named for Damnation Alley, the nickname of Boston’s first one-way street which usually had two-way traffic. Because of this traffic pattern, often times loud, profanity-laden discussions were heard as travelers used the alley as a short cut to both Quincy Market and business meetings at the Royal Exchange Tavern.
