Episode #12 – Herman Mihalich – Dad’s Hat

Herman Mihalich of Dad's Hat

This episode features Herman Mihalich of Dad’s Hat.  Herman and John S. Cooper are the founders of Dad’s Hat.  They start from scratch to make genuine small batch rye.  Their mission is to distill and deliver classic Pennsylvania Rye spirits following over 200 years of American distilling tradition.  It all started with an article in The New York Times in 2006 promoting the comeback of Rye Whiskey.  But, truly, Rye Whiskey is in their blood and is a family tradition.  Dad’s Hat is located at Mountain Laurel Spirits, 925 Canal Street, Building 44, Bristol, PA 19007 – 215-781-8300 www.dadshatrye.com –  On Facebook

Visit #2 To Dad’s Hat

All they do is continue making exceptional Rye Whiskey. Herman (co-owner and distiller) gave the tour which was informative and educational. We sampled a number of their offerings and the 95 Proof Straight Rye continues to be one of our favorites along with the Classic. None of their offerings disappoint. We couldn’t pass up on a bottle of their Rock n Rye. It’s Christmas in a bottle. Complex flavors that linger on the palate. This is a limited release and it’s our guess that they will be increasing production for next year. Aways looking forward to see what comes off of the still in Bristol, PA. This needs to be a must visit on your own Fermented Adventure. www.dadshatrye.com
