Pennsylvania was once the heart of American rye whiskey, and Iron City Distilling is bringing that history back to life.

This week, we sit down with President Peter Katz and Distiller Austin Keaton to talk about what makes their whiskey different. From Pennsylvania-grown rye and a rare three-chamber still to steam-heated aging and some seriously unique barrel finishes, they’re not afraid to do things their own way.

We also get into the story behind the distillery, why they focus so much on pre-Prohibition whiskey-making, what’s coming next, and of course… we taste some great whiskey along the way.

If you enjoy learning the stories behind the bottle—or you’re just looking for your next great pour—you won’t want to miss this one.

🥃 Cheers!
