Overview

More Info

Dad's Hat, the Bristol, Pennsylvania distillery, does something unusual with its barrels: it lends empty rye casks to Somerset County maple producers, who age syrup in the whiskey-soaked wood for months. Dad's Hat then reclaims those maple-saturated barrels to finish its 80% rye mashbill whiskey — no added flavoring, just what the wood picked up. Expect honey-glazed pecans and maple pralines on the nose, rye spice riding through subtle maple sweetness, and a luscious mouthfeel on the finish. Pour it neat or into a fall-leaning Old Fashioned.
Tasting notes

Nose is woody and herbaceous.

Bold and spicy rye flavor with a bit of heat on the back of the tongue. Initial rye notes gives way to subtle flavors of citrus, cinnamon, nuts and rock candy.

Lingering, medium-long finish.

★ ★ ★ ☆ ☆ 3/5 AI Rating

Dad's Hat is a Pennsylvania craft distillery working to revive the state's pre-Prohibition rye traditions, and this maple syrup cask finish adds a gentle sweetness that plays well against the naturally spicy rye base. Enthusiasts of flavored and finished whiskeys enjoy the subtle, not-too-sweet maple character that complements rather than masks the underlying rye. It is a fun, seasonal-friendly expression that introduces new drinkers to the Pennsylvania rye style.
