TILLING
Throughout the past few years, micro-distilleries have been popping up all over the country. Bucks County is home to two locally-owned and operated distilleries, both offering a unique taste and the opportunity for a close-up look at the distilling process.
A Pennsylvania tradition returns! If you’re in the mood for true Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey made by hand, in small batches, using only natural and local ingredients, then pick up a bottle from Dad’s Hat Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey in Bristol. Each batch is made from rye grown in Bucks County and Lancaster County. Come out for a one-hour tour to learn all about the distilling process, enjoy a tasting of their different varieties and pick up a bottle of your favorite, direct from the distillery. Sean Tracy of Hewn Spirits in Pipersville has more than 25 years of experience in the art of handcrafting historic wooden objects, which translates directly into each barrel of spirits he and his teammates distill. Each barrel, from their Shipmate Gold Rum to the Red Barn Rye Whiskey, is made from grains grown less than 10 miles from the distillery, giving every bottle a truly local taste. Stop by for a personalized tasting or bring a group of friends for a private tour.
