About

Offered twice per week, the Founders Tour includes the same introduction to the Michter's production process as the Discovery tour, but also gives you the opportunity to delve into the process of distilling on the legendary Michter's Pennsylvania pot still system. After your tour, you will join us for a tasting of 7 Michter's whiskeys, including our legacy brands, Bomberger's and Shenk's, before receiving a gift to commemorate your visit to Michter's Fort Nelson Distillery.

Founders Tours must be booked in advance.
