In Western Kentucky, three families came together to create the Hemingway Whiskey Company and Hemingway Rye Whiskey: the Calls, the Groths, and the Hemingways. Each family brought their own inspiration and stories passed down from generation to generation, and the result is a rye whiskey rich with tradition. Inspired by American author, journalist, and storyteller Ernest Hemingway and his family, Hemingway Whiskey Company is led by Steve Groth, whiskey pioneer and co-founder of the revered Angel’s Envy Bourbon brand. The Call family, Seventh-Generation Master Distiller Ron Call and his sons, Clayton Call and Eighth-Generation Master Distiller Jacob Call hand source, blend, and finish the rye whiskey, building on generations of distilling expertise and innovation.
