Fraunces Tavern, proud American Whiskey Trail spot
 The Fraunces Tavern Museum, most famous as the location where Gen. George Washington said farewell to his officers on December 4, 1783 after running the Red Coats off the island, holds a spot on the American Whiskey Trail.
Fraunces Tavern Museum, which still operates a restaurant and bar, is the only New York location on the whiskey map. Other stops include Jim Beam and Jack Daniels distilleries, the Woodville Plantation and President Washington's distillery at Mt. Vernon.
The Fraunces Tavern Museum is located at 54 Pearl St. at Broad Street, map.
