History and whiskey make the perfect pairing at Liberty Pole Spirits, a distillery that carries on the traditions of Scotch-Irish veterans of the Revolutionary War. As a “grain to glass” distillery, Liberty Pole uses only locally-sourced grain and corn to create its outstanding whiskies and bourbons in its 300-gallon, American-made copper still. The tasting room, called The Mingo Creek Meetinghouse, is named after the Mingo Creek Society who protested excise taxes on distilled beverages way back in 1794. Tours, tastings, and reservations for “Dinner in the Tent” can be booked online and via phone for a unique and educational experience.
