According to Linda Moore in the Gettysburg Times, America’s first distillery began in 1753. Brothers John and Michael Shenk established the distillery to increase profit from their crops, such as corn, rye, and barley. Revolutionary War soldiers were supplied with this Whiskey to help them get through the brutal winters. It is speculated that George Washington himself may have stopped at Shenk’s to buy Whiskey for his troops to Valley Forge. Word spread, and other farmers wanted the Shenks to distill their surplus crops, which helped expand their product and their name.

Let us know what Whiskey you want us to discuss in our next episodes or a place you like us to feature on our show.
