An 18.2-mile-long tributary of the mighty Schuylkill River cuts through the countryside and has become home to a winery, a brewery and, now, a distillery. First named by the Lenape Indians Man’en’tau’wata’wik, “the place we meet to drink,” and it means the same to us today.
Manatawny Still Works is a state-of-the-art distiller of the highest quality,
small-batch spirits handcrafted right on the same banks where the natives
once drank.
THE SPIRIT OF MANATAWNY
Manatawny Still Works was developed to produce world-class spirits with a character in small batches. Our distillery is modern, but our practices are based on old-world production with a reverent nod to the history of the region. From the Lenape Indians, whose name for the nearby creek we borrowed for our distillery to historical figures of importance, for whom we named some of our very first spirits. The spirit of Manatawny is focused on quality, but rooted in the past.
