Dad's Hat Whiskey

Dad’s Hat Whiskey is based in Bristol, Pennsylvania. Herman Mihalich and John S. Cooper established it. The distillery pays homage to Pennsylvania's rye whiskey history. It combines tradition with modern distillation and branding.

Pennsylvania has a history of making rye whiskey. It used to lead the United States in this. Dad’s Hat revives these traditions. They want to bring back a once-popular industry.

Mihalich grew up in the industry. He watched his father run a beverage distillery. His father always wore a classic fedora. This inspired Dad’s Hat Whiskey's name and logo. This personal touch gives the brand a relatable appeal.

Dad’s Hat focuses on traditional Pennsylvania rye whiskey. They aim to recreate the spicy and robust flavours of the region's historical rye whiskeys. Their Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey uses 80% rye. This gives it a spicy, fruity taste. They also use malted barley and malted rye. This adds complexity and a subtle sweetness.

Their ageing process is important. They age the whiskey in charred, white oak quarter casks. This allows for a quicker, more intense ageing. This makes the spirit robust and mature, despite its young age.

The company offers different rye whiskeys. Their classic Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey is spicy and rounded. Their Vermouth Barrel Finished Rye is complex and slightly sweet. They showcase rye whiskey's versatility while using traditional methods.

Dad’s Hat Whiskey highlights Pennsylvania's rye whiskey history. Mihalich and Cooper have created a brand that appeals to both whiskey experts and casual drinkers. They blend tradition and innovation. They offer a product that is authentic and quality-driven. It's also linked to Pennsylvania's whiskey heritage. Their careful craftsmanship and commitment to quality make Dad’s Hat a significant part of American whiskey's story.
