Ragtime Rye Barrel Pick

The Rochester Whiskey Enthusiasts is a locally run facebook group for whiskey fans to talk about, share, and trade whiskey. To celebrate 1000 members, they partnered with New York Distilling and members of the Rochester Elite Barrel Pickers to hand select a barrel of 5 year Ragtime Rye aged in Privateer Rum Barrels.

The label for this pick needed to embody everything the RWE group is about, and what better way to do that than to include the members in the label itself?! Complete with some cool shots of bottles, glencairn glasses, and some impressive “bottle chugs”…This label is a huge thank you to everyone who makes this group the fun and welcoming environment that it is. We also wanted to sneak in some Rochester symbolism, like the Frederick Douglass Susan B Anthony Memorial Bridge.
