Detroit may be famous for being the home of the car industry and Motown, but it also boasts a long and impressive rye whisky heritage. That’s in great part thanks to the Hiram Walker Distillery right across the river in Windsor, Ontario, which has supplied the city with high-quality whisky for decades. The Daily Beast and Lot 40 visited the Motor City and toured the historic Canadian distillery to tell this fascinating story. So fix yourself a rye Manhattan and enjoy!
