The historic Michter's Distillery in Schaefferstown, PA has new owners as of this week. My friend Dwight Hostetter was forced to sell the property. Here is a newspaper article on the transaction:

Hopefully the new owners stick to their story and give some of the buildings a nice restoration!

I tried some Michters 10 y/o at the sampler. Pretty tasty stuff, but very expensive to buy.

Looks like they're moving to KY.

That's a different company than what was in PA. They just bought the name back in the late 90's. While I wish them well, I wish they would stop acting like they were the same company that was in PA.
