Just like Hemingway’s storied adventures, rye can be grown and found around the world with each region differing slightly in taste and profile creating the most unique and difficult grain to distill with. In Hemingway terms, rye is damn hard to make.

We’re not creating Hemmingway alone. Our approach to whisky-making is itself a blend of different influences. There’s the chance encounters, inspiring anecdotes, connections with passionate makers, and introductions to friends of friends. There’s the inspiration from elements within and well outside the world of whisky. There’s the resurrection of some obsolete and forgotten traditions and techniques. And the creation of a few new ones.
