Let's see...

Washington started his whiskey business in 1797, and died in 1799.

I hope he died contented. :-)

Probably did not have to deal with todays bureacrats either. After todays taxes on 11,000 gallons of whiskey his $7,500.00 profit would not exist.

Washington will always be our greatest President. The fact that he appreciated a good whiskey only enhances his reputation. Wonderful man, wonderful President. To your health in that great distillery in the sky, Mr. President.
