Description

HIRSCH The Departure is a unique American Single Malt Whiskey distilled at the Hotaling & Co. Distillery in San Francisco. This new release marks one of the final spirits crafted at the original Potrero Hill location. Aptly named “The Departure,” it represents a bold new direction for the distillery, known primarily for its rye whiskeys. Crafted from 100% malted barley, this expression stands apart from previous offerings, showcasing a different side of Hotaling & Co.'s expertise.
