""This is preposterous," admits owner and distillery GM Joel LeVangia. "But it's an interesting thing, and it's a good way for us to introduce ourselves to people.""
""In the Battle of Kingston, the British burned Kingston," LaVangia says. "So we're going to do something peated, and we don't normally do peated single malts. We bought some [used] barrels from Laphroiag and Ardbeg.""
Tenmile Distillery, based in Wassaic, New York, produces single malt whisky, gin, and vodka using grains sourced primarily within a 30-mile radius. Master Distiller Shane Fraser previously led Wolfburn Distillery in Scotland. The Revolutionary Series comprises 57 distinct bottlings commemorating the United States Semiquincentennial: 55 bottles correspond to Revolutionary War battles and two honor unique pivotal figures, including George Washington and West Point. Each label details aspects of the battle or person and each expression is crafted to reflect those histories, such as using peated barrels for the Battle of Kingston. Release pacing includes one 2024 release, four released last year, and twelve slated for 2026 with monthly rollouts.
