Wassaic Highlands: Scottish-Style Single-Malt Distillery Tenmile Opens its Doors
Teaming up with his son-in-law and whisky aficionado Joel LeVangia, John Dyson set out to honor his Scottish grandfather by creating the closest possible thing to a Scotch this side of the pond. The pair imported all the equipment from Scotland and even managed to hire a Scottish distiller (a rare feat). Now their first batch is dutifully aging in oak barrels. And in the meantime, the Wassaic distillery, in a beautifully renovated old dairy barn, has opened to public for tours and tastings of their other award-winning spirits—Sinpatch Vodka and Listening Rock Gin.
