About the distillery

The distillery was originally called Shenks and later became Bomberger's. It was founded by John Shenk, a Swiss immigrant and farmer in Pennsylvania in 1753.

Whiskey was primarily produced on rye, which was bought locally. There was a very high demand for the distillery's whiskey. The story goes that Shenks whiskey was so popular that George Washington visited the distillery and bought whiskey for his men to keep warm in the winter when the Revolutionary War broke out.

Later, the distillery was bought by Dutchman Abraham Bomberger's and for many years thereafter was called Bomberger's.

After some hard years, the distillery was taken over in the 1990s by Joseph J. Magliocco and Richard “Dick” Newman. They still have the distillery to this day and produce whiskey according to tradition. Their master distiller Willie Pratt is known as one of the best and never compromises on the quality of the products. If he judges that a dish is not ready for release, then it remains until he gives the green light. Quality is alpha omega for Michter's,
