Company Summary

Taking advantage of recent changes to the PA liquor code designed to spur the craft distilling industry, WDP will be a boutique distillery manufacturing a flagship product for sale through the LCB and also directly to the customer. Other "one-off" products will be sold exclusively on-site. These direct sales are highly profitable given the retail prices at a manufacturer's costs. On-site sales of cocktails and food are also now permitted as well.
