Liberty Pole Spirits (Washington County, PA) WF0025 A historical rye, peated Bourbon, and tons of history - you know I'm there. Join me this week as I stop off at a distillery where turning your Alexander Hamilton painting upside down is considered the appropriate way to display it. It's time to meet Jim Hough and learn about his family based distillery, focused on bringing back Monongahela Rye. We'll chat about this historic spirit and dive into some Whiskey Rebellion history. And, I'll give you tips on some cool things to pair with a visit to the distillery, including a sandwich topped with something quite unexpected. Plus, on The Week in Whiskey Lore, I'll look at a famous single malt first and see if it holds up. And if you're interested in planning a trip to Pennsylvania to visit distilleries and you want to get a wish list together, visit <a href="https://whiskey-lore.com/pennsylvania" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow" data-link-auto= "">whiskey-lore.com/pennsylvania</a> and sign up for a free account.
