Episode 148 – Liberty Pole Spirits Grand Opening

This special episode features ⁠Jim⁠, ⁠Ellen⁠, Rob and ⁠Kevin Hough⁠ of ⁠Liberty Pole Spirits⁠.

On July 15th Liberty Pole Spirits entered a new chapter in the history of their whiskey distillery. Friends, family and new fans joined the celebration and filled their new campus to capacity. It was an amazing experience to be part of the festivities and tour this state of the art distillery. The crowned jewel is the largest rickhouse in all of Pennsylvania. This expansive structure provides so much room now to fill and age barrels.

The tasting room and bottle shop are full of history which is befitting to the distilled spirits that are being produced. It’s a comfortable space to sit, relax, sip and enjoy the sights, sounds and the conversations all around. The cocktails are amazing. A perfect balanced and well rounded compliment to the base whiskey being used. We got see the production space from the seating area overlooking the distillery itself.

⁠Episode 31⁠ featured Jim and there you can learn about the history and the humble beginnings of Liberty Pole. This episode provides a glimpse into the excitement of opening day, the experiences leading up to it and some never told stories about the beginning of the distillery.

This is certainly a destination that must be on your bucket list.

Episode 101 – The Whiskey Rebellion Festival

This episode features a brief history about the Whiskey Rebellion. On July 8th we took part in the Whiskey Walk festivities. Spirit producers were set up throughout the town of Washington, PA. We got to sample and speak with them as they introduced their products to the masses. On July 9th we got to witness the amazing retelling of the rebellion. The actors that portrayed the key principles were sensational. There were food trucks, activities for the kids and craft vendors. This was an opportunity to taste what it was like for settlers back in the late 1700’s. The parade in the morning sets the tone for the rest of the day. The tarring and feathering is always a crowed favorite. The entire festival is is a chance to be immersed in a major historic event that most of us have never heard of. Oh yeah, and you get to enjoy some wonderful spirits and tasty food. Put this event on the calendar for 2023.
