Ragtime Rye is made by The New York Distilling Company, a craft distillery located in Brooklyn, New York. Founded in 2011 by Tom Potter and Allen Katz. Both Potter and Katz had extensive experience in the beverage industry, with Potter co-founding the Brooklyn Brewery and Katz being a spirits expert and educator.
Established with a mission to revive New York City's distilling heritage, which had faded after Prohibition. The distillery sought to create high-quality spirits that reflected the city's vibrant culture and history.
Ragtime Rye is a revival of the traditional rye whiskey style that was popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The name 'Ragtime' pays homage to the lively and syncopated music genre that flourished during the same era.
A rye whiskey, crafted from a mash bill of 72% New York State-grown rye, 16% corn, and 12% malted barley. It undergoes fermentation and distillation at the distillery before being aged in new charred American oak barrels. This ensures a robust flavour and a nuanced finish.
Known for its bold and spicy character, typical of traditional rye whiskies. With notes of pepper, cinnamon, and nutmeg complemented by hints of caramel and vanilla from the ageing process.

Tasting Rating Guide
1: Light, good for beginners - an aperitif on a summers day, i.e. Glengoyne, Auchentoshan
2: Also good for beginners but with more depth and body - a little stronger than 1, ie. Glenmorangie, Speyburn
3: A dram for everyone, a little more complex so the palate requires a little more experience, i.e. Cragganmore, Macallan
4: A stronger spirit, a big whisky with lots of character and body, excellent after dinner, i.e. Lagavulin, Laphroaig
