Michter's
Michter's was America's first commercial distillery 1753, founded in Schaefferstown, Pennsylvania. It became known as the whiskey that warmed the American Revolution and this was adopted as the company's motto and aged for six years in new white oak barrels. This sour mash was full of character from the grains grown by the local Amish. It became the only pot stilled whiskey in America when a room sealed off during prohibition was discovered in 1950 and plans were made to resume production. The pot still is a primitive and inefficient vessel that producers spirits of great complexity and character when skillfully used as opposed to more modern continuous stills used for more mass produced products. Michter's experienced a renaissance that culminated with special limited edition decanters being issued in novelty designs in the late 1970s. It was closed and sold to Jim Beam in 1990 and the current Michter's products have little in common with the original Pennsylvania Article except the name.
