WHY WHISKEY WAR?
Prohibition is said to have started just 12 miles from our High Bank facility, in Westerville, Ohio. In 1875, Henry Corbin took a chance and opened a saloon in an area known to strongly oppose the consumption of distilled spirits. Not once, but twice, the saloon was blown up. It was said before the first explosion, Henry came outside to address the protesters with two pistols drawn. That single act is believed to have ignited the Whiskey Wars of prohibition and launched the Anti-Saloon League. Unique batches inside our expertly blended whiskey wage war with each other and your taste buds come out the victor.
