Christine Riggleman & Daughters Abby and Lauren

Christine Riggleman, CEO and Master Distiller of Silverback Distillery, along with her daughters Lauren Riggleman, Assistant Distiller & General Manager, and Abby Riggleman, General Manager for Silverback's Poconos location and the Media Director for the company, were the featured speakers at the East Stroudsburg University President’s Distinguished Entrepreneur Speaker Series on Tuesday, November 19, 2019. 

The Riggleman “Women Who Distill” shared their story on how they developed a women owned internationally recognized distillery with locations in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia and most recently in East Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania. Led by Master Distiller Christine Riggleman, the Silverback Distillery story is inspiring and rooted in her fascination with distilling while on a tour of Ben Nevis Distillery in Scotland in 2012.
