Ponfeigh Distillery is a hidden gem tucked into the whiskey-rich hills of Somerset, Pennsylvania—a place where history, heritage, and exceptional craftsmanship meet in every pour. Their Rye Whiskey is highly praised, with one reviewer calling it "one of the best Rye Whiskeys" they've tasted. The distillery offers a range of products, including a traditional 90 Proof Rye and a 4-year-old cask strength Rye at 117 proof. The Westsylvania Rye Whiskey is particularly noted as "to die for," with Rye that is locally grown and milled in-house.
From the moment visitors step onto the property, they’re not just visiting a distillery—they’re stepping into a story. The folks at Ponfeigh have revived the bold spirit of Monongahela Rye, crafting whiskey that pays homage to Pennsylvania’s proud roots in American distilling. Their Westsylvania Cask Strength Rye is an absolute powerhouse—layered with spice, dark fruit, and caramel.
The tasting room is warm and welcoming, and the team behind the bar knows their whiskey well. Visitors can enjoy informative and fun distillery tours, generous tastings, and even special events in the 20,000 sq. ft. facility, which includes an amphitheater and museum. The owner often leads tours himself, adding a personal touch. This modern facility features a friendly staff that provides wonderful service, ensuring a memorable experience.
For those looking for more than whiskey, the distillery partners with Marinades Grill for dinner service, offering steak and salmon choices. Whether guests are seasoned sippers or just getting started, Ponfeigh Distillery is a must-visit destination for whiskey enthusiasts and is highly recommended by those who have experienced it.
