Hochstadter’s Slow & Low: Where Rye Meets Old-World Charm
Hochstadter’s Slow & Low isn’t a simple flavored whiskey; it’s a gateway to an era of classic cocktails and handcrafted spirits. Inspired by the pre-Prohibition tradition of Rock and Rye, this bottled spirit evokes the warmth and sophistication of a bygone time.
What is Rock and Rye?
Before mass-produced, flavored liqueurs filled bar shelves, bartenders concocted their own elixirs to enhance classic cocktails. Central to this was Rock and Rye:
- The Rye Backbone: Robust rye whiskey provided a complex foundation with warm spice notes.
- Sweetness Meets Bitterness: Rock candy (crystallized sugar) added sweetness, while citrus rind and spices introduced herbal complexities.
- Medicinal Reputation: This wasn’t just a tasty drink; many believed it held medicinal qualities, especially during the cold winter months.
