All Points West Distillery Mid-Atlantic Pot Still Rye

$70.00
Excl. tax

Staying true to its Mid-Atlantic roots, this rye is spicy and smooth, and without the corn that's become more prevalent in other rye products. We are tasting cinnamon, oak, and gingerbread.

Starting with distiller Wilhelm Hendriksen in 1640 on the Kill Van Kull which connects Newark’s & New York’s bays, until 1972 when the last rye distillery closed in Maryland and 1989 when the last rye distillery closed in Pennsylvania, Mid-Atlantic Rye was America’s true small grain whiskey. Later when the Mid-Atlantic Rye brands were reintroduced by Kentucky distilleries the Kentucky distillers used their bourbon know-how to create the high corn Kentucky Style Rye we know today. Reviving tradition, All Points West Distillery recreates and distills an authentic, small grain, corn-free, Mid-Atlantic Rye.

Following the recommendations of Irving Hirsch, who in the 1930’s out of his office on Frelinghuysen Ave in Newark NJ reinvented post-Prohibition distillation, our rye is distilled from: Rye, Barley, and a mix of malted grains.

Made at All Points West Distillery from grain to bottle.
