On November 7, 2021 we were present for a historic event at George Washington's Mount Vernon Distillery.  Keystone Rosen Rye was milled, fermented and distilled.  In part one we sit down with Robert and Sherri McDonald of Dancing Star Farm.  They grew the heirloom grain that went into the mash.  Next we discuss the development of the Rosen with Laura Fields of The Fields Foundation.   Erik Wolfe of Stoll and Wolfe joins us to share his thoughts of the days events, as well as, the legacy and impact of Dick Stoll.
