When Hillary Clinton was campaigning and on the trail to win the 2016 elections, a female-run distillery in Washington D.C spent months creating something worthy of celebrating the first female President of the United States. When the election happened and everything went topsy-turvy, releasing the spirit made no sense.
Rachel Gardner and Pia Carusone of Republic Restoratives have decided to move forward and release their specially concocted whiskey named Rodham Rye. It will go on sale today in a limited batch of 4,652 bottles. This whiskey honours Hillary Rodham Clinton in all her glory.
According to Grub Street, Carusone said that they’re releasing the whiskey now because the Rodham Rye is a celebration of women in general and releasing it in the month of March is also a way to celebrate Women’s History Month. “Rye is the sturdiest of all the grains, the grain that will grow in the most harsh conditions and still thrive,” Carusone told The Huffington Post.
As explained on their Facebook page, “the rye is made from a blend of whiskies that are stronger together than apart”. And the result is said to be spicy and sweet, with vanilla and cinnamon notes.
And what’s even better is that 5% fromevery sale of $79 bottle goes to EMILY’S List, an organisation that supports pro-choice Democratic women running for office!

Why is the first thing that comes to mind is sock sweat?
I don't always drink Rye. But when I do, I . . . . I . . . uh . . . . when I do I don't . . . . uh . . . . I prefer . . . uh . . . . oh, who am I kidding. I do always drink.
A few shots of this and you will go down faster than Hillary waiting on a street corner.
Rodham Rye. It cost the Dems a fortune and when they woke up on November 9, they wondered why the Hell they ever got in bed with her.
Drink this and you become an angry old hag with big hips?
There are plenty of well-heeled leftists who would feel so self-righteous to be drinking this. Maybe a special gift to your ‘female identifying’ significant leftist other. :-)
I’d bet it is a sour mash.
It makes you whine, angry and stumble a lot.
I haven’t had a drink in about 17 years, but as I recall, Scotch was on top of the list, bourbon (my favorite, much to the chagrin of those around me,) and rye was the stumblebum’s drink.
Other may have different opinions.
I mean bourbon was the workingman’s drink.
Aged in sardine barrels?
A fine Rye which really opens up the sluices at both ends
A few shots of that and you’ll say “What difference does it make?”.
Did Hillary buy the first 4,000 bottles?
Here in Texas, that would be classified as rotgut...
Shouldn’t whiskey be aged? This stuff can’t be more than a year old, unless it’s just generic mass produced stuff they bottled.
Focus groups showed it was big with people 40 to 50. 1940 to 1950.
All of it...
