{"product_id":"high-rye-cap","title":"\"High Rye. Spicier Than He Looks\" Vintage Washed Cap","description":"\u003cp\u003eOn an August afternoon in 1974, a basket of red peppers sat by the back steps. He threaded a needle with kitchen twine and pushed it through each stem, one at a time. When the string was full, he tied it off and hung the peppers from a porch nail. He looked mild enough until you tasted what he had grown. That is the idea behind it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe line works because Spicier Than He Looks gives the quiet one away. High Rye borrows the peppery reputation of rye whiskey without making a speech about it. Anyone who knows a soft-spoken grandparent or old friend with a sharp comeback will nod. The wheat stalk, red chili pepper, and green leaves put the joke in plain sight. It is not a lecture about whiskey or a complaint about getting older.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0675\/7682\/4041\/files\/design_lifestyle_db0ffd5a-f887-456e-afa3-7378daaaeb01.png?v=1794548670\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA little wear suits the joke:\u003c\/b\u003e Premium washed denim fabric gives the cap a soft, broken-in vintage feel.
