Wigle Whiskey is a small-batch, craft whiskey distillery in the Strip District neighborhood of Pittsburgh. Made with love in the heart of the City of Champions, Wigle Spirits are a true expression and quintessential experience in the welcoming community of Pittsburgh.

American whiskey was born in Pittsburgh! Throughout the 1700 and 1800s, Western Pennsylvania was the epicenter of American Whiskey production. Wigle is named for one of those pioneering Pennsylvania distillers. In the 1790s, Phillip Wigle defended his right to distill in a tussle with a tax collector and unwittingly helped spark the Whiskey Rebellion, which pitted Western Pennsylvania distillers against George Washington’s troops. He was sentenced to hang for treason but was ultimately pardoned by Washington. By 1808, Allegheny County was producing half a barrel of whiskey for every man, woman and child living in America. The gold standard of American whiskey was a spicy, earthy rye whiskey called Monongahela Rye. We aim to bring back this tradition with organic regional grains milled on site, then fermented and distilled in our copper pot still in the first distillery in the City of Pittsburgh since Prohibition.

Nationality Rooms at the Cathedral of Learning

4200 Fifth Ave, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA
(412) 624-6000

The University of Pittsburgh's renowned Nationality Rooms are gifts from the ethnic communities who helped to build Pittsburgh. 31 rooms commemorate the cultural heritages of the communities who supported and planned their construction.

The idea of the Nationality Rooms originated in 1926 when the ground was broken for the construction of the 42-story gothic-style Cathedral of Learning. The first 19 rooms encircling the first floor Commons Room were completed between 1938 and 1957. The other twelve rooms, some of which are located on the third floor of the Cathedral of Learning, have been built since 1987.

An important principle in the plan for each room is that the design pre-date the signing of the American Constitution and the founding of the University of Pittsburgh in 1787. The Nationality Rooms are intended to promote the depiction of deeply-rooted and lasting elements, so political and religious symbols do not appear in the rooms nor do portraits of or reference to any living person. The rooms and the elements within were created based on designs by international architects, designers, artists and craftspeople. The designs of the Nationality Rooms are functional, educational and aesthetically pleasing. The rooms are in use most every weekday as classrooms. The Nationality Rooms provide inspiration to the students, faculty, staff and guests who visit them.

[Check out the website for info on guided tours. Since these rooms are used by the University of Pittsburgh, availability during the fall semester may vary]

Costs of guided tours are between $3 - $10 per person
