Distilled in the heart of the Monongahela (mə-NONG-gə HEE-lə) Valley of western Pennsylvania, a region steeped in the rich heritage of rye whiskey craftsmanship, comes a tribute to tradition and innovation. In tribute, Liberty Pole Spirits announced the arrival of Old Monongahela Full Proof Rye Whiskey, a testament to the time-honored and once world-famous Monongahela Rye style reintroduced to modern whiskey drinkers.
Based on a storied recipe beloved for centuries, our Old Monongahela Full Proof Rye Whiskey pays homage to its historical roots while embracing the essence of contemporary distillation.
At the core of its character lies a high rye mash bill made with 74% total rye, composed of 61% Pennsylvania grown rye and 13% malted rye. This distinctive blend is further enriched with 13% wheat and 13% malted barley, resulting in a classic style of pot distilled Pennsylvania rye whiskey.
The spirit is placed into 53-gallon barrels made from local Appalachian oak by the West Virginia Great Barrel Company at a low barrel entry of 108 proof. This low entry proof guards against astringency that can occur in high barrel proof whiskeys while extracting dark leather and caramel notes.
The inaugural release of Old Monongahela Full Proof Rye Whiskey marks a milestone in our journey, showcasing a blend of six barrels ranging from 3.5 to 4.5 years old. Bottled at a proof of 108, mirroring its barrel entry proof, this expression captures the true essence of Monongahela Rye.
This release will be available at the distillery and for shipping to PA addresses on May 11 for $64 for a 750mL bottle. Old Monongahela Full Proof Rye Whiskey invites discerning palates to indulge in a taste of tradition reborn.
