A Glimpse into History
The roots of Michter's Distillery trace back to 1753 when John Shenk, a Swiss Mennonite farmer, founded Shenk's Distillery in Pennsylvania. Over the years, the distillery has gone through transformations, being rebranded multiple times, ultimately becoming Michter's in the mid-20th century. This storied legacy is the essence captured in the Michter's Legacy Series, which pays homage to the distillery’s rich past while embracing modern craft.
