Old Potrero Rye Hotalings Whiskey 750 ML

Old Potrero Rye 'Hotaling's' is a 100% malted rye whiskey from Anchor Distilling in San Francisco, distilled in a small copper pot still and named for A.P. Hotaling, the 19th-century San Francisco whiskey merchant whose warehouse famously survived the 1906 earthquake and fire. It follows the same pre-Prohibition production method as the rest of the Old Potrero line — pot distillation from an all-malted-rye mash, then aging in toasted rather than charred new oak barrels. That combination produces a rye with more pot-still texture and less of the vanilla-forward sweetness a charred-barrel bourbon or rye typically carries. It's a whiskey for drinkers interested in historical American distilling styles rather than a modern high-rye bourbon-adjacent profile.

How to drink Old Potrero Rye Hotaling's

Drink it neat to appreciate the pot-still character the toasted-oak aging preserves — ice will mute the grain texture that defines this whiskey. It also makes a historically accurate base for a pre-Prohibition-style rye cocktail like a Sazerac.
