Since they began distilling in 1993, Hotaling & Co. has grown a portfolio of in-house and imported brands across American, French, Mexican, Scottish, Taiwanese, Irish, and Japanese spirits (a non-exhaustive list!). At the core of their home-distilled labels is Old Potrero, which the company states is the “first U.S. producer of crafted copper pot-distilled whiskey after Prohibition.”
Since it first released Mountain Angel 10 Years Old in 2020, Stranahan’s has laid claim to one of the highest continually released age statements in American single malt. Now, under the guidance of second-year Head Blender Justin Aden, the brand is tacking on a couple more years to a core offering. Starting in late 2024, Stranahan’s will begin selling a version Mountain Angel with a 12 year age statement. According to the brand, it’s the oldest straight American single malt ever released to the public.
Pennsylvania’s Stoll & Wolfe Distillery was founded in 2016 by Erik and Avianna Wolfe, who partnered with former Michter’s (Pennsylvania-based) Master Distiller Dick Stoll to get operations off the ground. One of their earliest production fascinations was Rosen rye, a grain type developed over 100 years ago but eventually lost due to cross-contamination with other varietals.
The only operational distillery on the Isle of Mull, Tobermory splits its yearly production between unpeated — Tobermory Single Malt — and peated whisky, which it brands under the Ledaig label.
