A little background

Stoll & Wolfe Straight American Whiskeys Blend is priced at approximately $64 USD.

Established in 2016, Stoll & Wolfe Distillery was founded by Dick Stoll, Avianna Wolfe, and Erik Wolfe as a continuation of Pennsylvania’s longstanding whiskey-making tradition. Based in Lititz, Pennsylvania, the distillery draws from the state’s deep distilling heritage dating back to the 1700s. Dick Stoll, formerly of the historic Pennsylvania Michter’s Distillery and a protégé of C. Everett Beam, helped shape the distillery’s focus on craftsmanship, local ingredients, and respect for regional methods. Stoll & Wolfe continues to produce small-batch whiskeys that celebrate the state’s history while contributing to its ongoing legacy.

In closing

Stoll & Wolfe Straight American Whiskeys Blend delivers a pleasant balance of sweet and spice, showcasing honeyed grain, caramel, and stone fruit notes accented by a gentle rye-driven warmth.
