‍✈️ WF054 to Pennsylvania: Dad's Hat Distillery - Rye revival, Rosen rebirth, amazing young whiskey (G48:16)

Dad's Hat Distillery (Bristol, PA) WF054

Been a long time since I've been in eastern Pennsylvania and I have good reason to be here now. I'm taking part in a Pennsylvania whiskey documentary AND I'm getting to enjoy some fantastic distillery visits. This week, it is the place where the Pennsylvania rye revival took off...thanks to a magazine article and a wonderful wife who supplied her husband with the best rye whiskies available at that time.

We'll hear the story of Herman Mihalich, co-founder of Dad's Hat Distillery, find out what got him interested in making rye whiskey in a world where it was barely breathing, and the legendary farm that helps him grow his grain. And patreon.com/whiskeylore fans will get an extra segment as we chat about Rosen Rye (get a free 7-day trial to the Speakeasy to check it out)

It's a fun conversation with a little reminiscing on my part as I make my way to the distillery.

Cheers and slainte mhath!
