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.
Adhering to strict Federal Bottled in Bond and Empire Rye Regulations, this expression of their flagship Rye hints at tropical notes with plum aromas and a delicious Crème Brûlée and warm oak flavour. With ice it opens up and there's some secondary apricot and banana chips in the finish.
Distilled from rye proudly grown in New York State, this uncompromising whiskey ages exclusively in full-size barrels for four years to ensure robust flavour and nuanced finish. Cold northern winters and rich soil provide an ideal terroir for the rye varietals selected with their farmers.
