Watch Distillers In Action At The George Washington Distillery

Filed under: Spirits

The new George Washington Distillery in Mount Vernon, Virginia is offering a chance to watch master distillers in action this week. Master distillers from liquor companies will be producing the traditional colonial-style whiskey based on Washington's recipe on authentic copper pot stills. Washington's original distillery was one of the largest in America at the time. From April to October, visitors can see costumed distillers performing traditional whiskey-making functions at the new distillery. The whiskey will eventually be for sale at the distillery after aging.
