The The New England Dist. Co. Distillery |
|
Cecil (1999) provides some history: he notes that the distillery was originally Crigler & Crigler's head office and rectifying house (1885), but was acquired by the New England Distilling Co. for manufacture of rum. Insurance underwriter records compiled in 1892 suggest that the distillery property included a single bonded warehouse. It was of frame construction with a shingle roof, 12 ft north of the still. At that time, it was being operated by the New England Distillery Co. The distillery continued producing rum during Prohibition for use as a flavoring agent in tobacco, operated by Henry Pogue and Herbert Hoffheimer. It was later acquired by Schenley (Cecil, 1999). |
