State Store: Dad's Hat Pennsylvania Rye
The fact that Rittenhouse Rye is distilled in Kentucky has always seemed like something of a cruel joke. If anyone should hold the rights to Rittenhouse rye, shouldn't it be a Pennsylvanian? Well, it's too late to get the name back but PA spirits enthusiasts will be pleased to know that Dad's Hat Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey is hitting the shelves of our lovely state stores.
State Store: Dad's Hat Pennsylvania Rye
The fact that Rittenhouse Rye is distilled in Kentucky has always seemed like something of a cruel joke. If anyone should hold the rights to Rittenhouse Rye, shouldn't it be a Pennsylvanian? Well, it's too late to get the name back but PA spirits enthusiasts will be pleased to know that Dad's Hat Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey is hitting the shelves of our lovely state stores.
Distilled in Bristol by Mountain Laurel Sprits, Dad's Hat is the first rye to be produced in state in over twenty years. Made with locally sourced rye, the Bucks County distillery begins the process with a white rye (or white dog) that's aged in charred oak casks. Once the casks have done their part to infuse the rye with all of those smooth, round notes, it's ready to go. If you're interested in the before and after of the process, Mountain Laurel sells their spicy White Rye as well.
Kicking off July 14th, Dad's Hat is going to be offering free distillery tours every Saturday afternoon so if you want to see how the rye making magic happen, get yourself to Grundy Commons Complex (925 Canal St., Bristol, 215-781-8300) between 1 p.m. and 4 p.m.
