Special Whiskey Sale – One Day Only!
10:30 am - 3:30 pm
A limited quantity of the new 1762 Whiskey is available for purchase on this day only. The cost is $50 per 375 ml. bottle or two for $90. Support the Fort by purchasing this unique gift crafted just for Fort Ligonier by the award-winning Wigle Whiskey.
The Archibald Blane painting of Fort Ligonier that hangs in the museum’s History Gallery inspired the new whiskey. Blane served as an ensign in the 60th Royal American Regiment during the 1758 Forbes Campaign, during which Fort Ligonier was constructed. He was promoted to lieutenant in 1759. An artist and an officer, Blane painted the watercolor of Fort Ligonier in 1762 when he was in command of the frontier outpost.
