THE STORY

New Liberty Distillery is located in a vibrant north Philadelphia neighborhood, just minutes from Center City. Our building once served as a stable, and much of its architecture, including the horse stalls, have been preserved. The building now provides a home to our custom-made still, as well as the rick house where we barrel age our whiskey.

Through our Heritage Collection, we at New Liberty Distillery are reinterpreting some of the brands that made Pennsylvania famous. We also are creating our own whiskey that will draw on local ingredients and display the skills of our master distiller, Robert Cassell. While we will distill many other great craft whiskeys, such as malt and bourbon, our passion will always be in making Pennsylvania rye whiskey once again world famous.

In addition to the working distillery, we also feature a bottle shop LOUNGE where you can sample our whiskey, shop our spirits, and enjoy a number of our public programs. Our Heritage Collection and New Liberty whiskeys, spirits-related gifts, and other locally sourced products can be purchased online or at the distillery.
