Old Potrero Whiskey is credited as the first American Craft Whiskey to hit the market after prohibition. Old Potrero's vision of a rye whiskey revival was fueled by the realization that rye was the grain of choice for America’s first distillers and that no pot-distilled whiskeys were being made legally in America in the early 1990s.

Finding inspiration in the rye whiskeys of America’s past and Scotland's great single malt whiskeys, the small distilling team began researching and experimenting.

The first whiskey went into the barrel in 1994, and the distillery soon began producing three pot-distilled rye whiskeys from a mash of 100% malted rye.

About Single Barrel Rye Whiskey

Single barrel rye whiskey, a beloved American spirit with a rich history dating back to the colonial era, is renowned for its bold flavor and spicy character. In the late 1700s, rye whiskey was immensely popular, with even George Washington owning a rye whiskey distillery capable of producing 11,000 gallons per year. In the early 1800s, Pennsylvania outpaced Kentucky in whiskey production, with one county alone producing enough rye whiskey to provide a barrel to every two people in the United States.
