A right and youthful Wheat Whiskey designed to represent the land where it was made.

Wigle Distillery in Pennsylvania is a two-family-owned operation. The Grelli’s (Alex and Meredith) and the Meyers (Mark and Mary Ellen) founded the distillery in 2011 and opened to the public in 2012. Known for interesting Spirit creations and experimenting with the impact of local grains on the flavors of Whiskey (the terroir), this upstart has become the most awarded distillery by The American Craft Spirits Association. And their wide-ranging line of products now spans nearly four dozen varieties.

Wigle Pennsylvania Wheat Whiskey is made from organic wheat, rye, and malted barley — all sourced locally in Pennsylvania. The resulting Spirit is distilled in their small-batch copper pot-still. The wheat brings the mellow caramel notes, the rye adds some spice, and there is just enough of the malted barley to bring floral notes to the aroma. The folks at Wigle think that this is a great Whiskey for lovers of Irish Spirits.

Smartass Corner:
Wigle Distillery is named after a Pennsylvania distilling hero. Phillip Wigle was one of two men convicted of treason during the American Whiskey Rebellion. Both were sentenced to hang, but were pardoned by George Washington himself.

Corn Whiskey is a commercial product that must contain at least 80% corn, be distilled at less than 80% ABV (160 proof), and, if wood-aged, may be aged in either used or new un-charred barrels.
George Washington was a man of many talents being both a military braniac and the First President of the United States. Interestingly, he also became the largest Whiskey producer in the United States after leaving the politics.
Tennessee Whiskey closely parallels Bourbon, but final filtering through sugar-maple charcoal (called the Lincoln County Process) is what some producers say differentiates them. Tennessee Whiskey’s finish is sweeter and smoother than Bourbon.
Rye Whiskey is made from mash that is at least 51 percent rye. The grain gives Rye Whiskey its spicy, sometimes peppery, and bitter flavor. It was a big seller before Prohibition, and after decades in obscurity, it’s fashionable again. Fun fact: George Washington distilled Rye Whiskey at Mount Vernon.
Moonshine Whiskey is distilled from a varied mix of corn and sugar and is aged in Mason jars and jugs for the length of time it takes the customers to get home.
An un-aged American Whisky is often called “white dog.”Sour Mash is the fermentation process by which a percentage of a previous fermentation is added to a new batch as a "starter" to get the fermentation going and maintain a level of consistency from batch to batch. A sweet mash means that only fresh yeast is added to a new batch to start fermentation.
