Full Details on the Rosen Rye Release:
The new release, bottled at 106.5 proof, marks the continuation of the distillery’s mission to revive the historic art of Pennsylvania whiskey making, specifically through the revival of Rosen Rye — a nearly forgotten grain once beloved by American distillers.
Dick’s legacy is part of the founding story of Stoll & Wolfe. This Rosen Rye whiskey we are releasing at four years of age reflects his vision in how we produce this heritage grain expression.
-Erik Wolfe, Co-Founder
The Rosen Rye used in this expression is sourced from the Kline Family Farm, located just miles from the Stoll & Wolfe distillery in Lititz, PA. The Kline family’s legacy dates back to 1741, adding a personal touch to this release. The rye itself was developed in the early 1900s but faded from use due to cross-contamination with other rye varieties. Stoll & Wolfe, alongside legendary distiller Dick Stoll, revived this unique grain in 2015, and the distillery continues to honor its legacy with this latest single barrel offering.
Priced at $120 for a 750ml bottle, the Stoll & Wolfe 4-Year Single Barrel Rosen Rye is non-chill filtered and limited to just 220 bottles. Available for purchase now in Pennsylvania and online nationwide, whiskey lovers can secure their bottle at Stoll & Wolfe’s online shop.
About Stoll & Wolfe:
Stoll & Wolfe, opened in 2016 in Lititz, Pennsylvania, is a testament to its unwavering dedication to the revival of Pennsylvania rye whiskey. Founded by Erik and Avianna Wolfe, the team worked tirelessly with former Michter’s (Pennsylvania) master distiller Dick Stoll to lead the charge, particularly with the rebirth of the Rosen Rye grain type. Their timeless approach to the production of spirits, employing open cypress tank fermentation and a column still with a thumper/doubler, followed by maturation in a range of unique settings, is a reflection of their commitment to developing the core flavors of Pennsylvania rye whiskey lovers have come to expect.
