Ironworks Distillery is in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, in a former blacksmith and marine forge. It opened in 2009 and makes small batch spirits including Bluenose Rum, named for the schooner on the Canadian dime. It uses copper pot stills from Germany and molasses as the base. The area has a long rum history tied to the Atlantic trade. The pin is at Lunenburg, and the detail of stills is partly confirmed.
