Whiskey Goes Woke: Company Doesn’t Want ‘Rittenhouse Rye’ Used to Celebrate Kenosha Verdict
Breitbart ^ | 11/24/2021 | HANNAH BLEAU

Posted on 11/24/2021 12:00:28 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Heaven Hill Brands, a large company behind several well-known spirits, went full woke this week, expressing disappointment upon learning that some customers were using its Rittenhouse Straight Rye Whiskey to celebrate the not guilty verdict of 18-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse.

“We have been disheartened to learn that some individuals and businesses have been using our Rittenhouse Straight Rye Whiskey brand to celebrate the Kyle Rittenhouse case verdict, despite the profound loss of life from those events,” Heaven Hill Brands said on social media this week, referencing Joseph Rosenbaum, a pedophile sex offender, and Anthony Huber, who pled guilty to charges of strangulation, suffocation, and domestic abuse; both men were fatally shot by Rittenhouse in self-defense.

Would go well with a Rittenhouse bar order. Which is a Chaser and three shots.

They don’t want people to do it, so they let everyone know about it. The opposite will happen.
Now I need to go to the liquor store.

I wasn’t about to purchase any Heaven Hill products anyway, but now I know to avoid them, except for Rittenhouse Rye, and I really don’t even like rye.

I'm wondering if this is a backdoor advertising campaign. I never heard of these folks before this

I’ve never even heard of Rittenhouse Rye until this thread. But you may be right, they might be unconsciously telling customers to buy them lol

It’s like the South Park episode where Eric Cartman told/ordered/yelled everyone not to go to his theme park..which made people want to go there more.

I had never heard of it, but with a name such as that, it was bound to turn out like this. They should enjoy the free publicity. It’ll pass.

Great drink “The Rittenhouse”: a chaser followed by 3 shots.
