Launched: Mountain View Vineyard & Distillery

Now that everyone has had some time to come to terms with the knowledge that, yes, Thanksgiving is over and we do actually have jobs to go back to, we can find solace in the fact that there are plenty of good folks out there hard at work ensuring we have a handcrafted drink at the end of it all.

One such member of that noble fraternity is newcomer to the craft community Mountain View Vineyard & Distillery. Not to be confused with Swanson's Mountain View Orchard and Distillery, who we featured in our inaugural issue of MicroShiner magazine, this particular Mountain View is a small vineyard/winery/distillery located in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. Already established after a decade of hard work and determination as a "seriously fun" vineyard and winery, the Mountain View micro-distillery opened on September 1st, 2013 to a great reception, featuring shine, brandy and port.
