We make this traditional Pennsylvania Monongahela Rye Whiskey from local, organic grains that we mill on-site. We then distill in small batches in our traditional copper pot still to preserve the robust, spicy character of the rye grains. With this Whiskey, we work to restore the whiskey tradition to Western Pennsylvania, birthplace of American Rye Whiskey. Wigle was awarded the Best Craft Rye Whiskey in the US by the American Craft Spirits Association. 

Each batch is barreled in small 10 and 15 gallon charred oak casks for over a year before it is hand bottled. No two batches are the same, as they each reflect the evolving terroir of Western Pennsylvania from year to year as well as the perspective of distiller at the time it was crafted. 

This Rye, available only through our website and at our Distillery and Barrelhouse in Pittsburgh, is a notch higher in proof than the Wigle Rye carried in stores throughout the Mid-Atlantic. 

Notes of vanilla, maple, brown sugar and cherry.

Perfect for Rye lovers and Scotch drinkers ready to see what American pot stills can produce.
