Est. 1869.
In 1892, the company was drawing liquor from warehouses of the J B Wathen & Bro. Co. distillery (RD #363, 5th District of KY): see the distillery listing for more details.

Their "own" Distillery (#815) was in Louisville and owned by John G Roach & Co. An ad in Fike suggests that they were established in 1869.

"Guckenheimer", "Maple Hurst", "Martin's Premium Malt", "Mo=Ka", "Our Hobby", "Red Leaf", "Rich Grain Private Stock", "Rich Grain Rye Malt", "Rich Grain Superior", "Rich Grain White Corn", "Sideboard", "Standard AA", "Standard AAA", "Triumph", "Tuxedo", and "Unicorn."
