Lost Lantern 2022 Single Cask #8: Dads Hat Pennsylvania Straight Rye Whiskey

2022 Single Cask #8: Dads Hat Pennsylvania Straight Rye Whiskey

We hand-selected this cask from Mountain Laurel Spirits, better known by its flagship brand Dads Hat, which has revived Pennsylvanias historic distilling tradition. The states whiskey history dates to the colonial era, but by the 1990s, Pennsylvania rye whiskey had disappeared completely. Dads Hat has brought this long tradition back to life, driven by a deep commitment to the states history, farmers, and culture.

This straight rye whiskey, our first from Dads Hat, was made from a mash bill of 80% rye, 15% malted barley, and 5% malted rye and aged in a 53-gallon barrel for 5 years. It is fresh and grassy, with spearmint on the nose and candied orange, chocolate, and clove on the palate.
