The White Mills Distillery Co. operated RD #414, 5th Dist. at 18th & Howard. The company was an arm of Cincinnati wholesalers (Hoffheimer Bros.). Nathan Hoffheimer was also on the board of the Belmont distillery, which probably explains why the Belmont and White Mills were producing and bottling for each other (see warehouse transactions on the respective distillery listing pages).
The company used the brand name: "Hoffheimer Rye." | | Business name timeline:

notes:
W = Wines & Liquors, I = Importers, D = Distillers, R = Rectifiers, DA = Distiller's Agents, B = Brokers (1892), S = Saloons (1905), M = Mail Order House (1915). Listings for wholesalers from 1866 to 1869 and for distillers 1866 through to 1906 were compiled from a typescript prepared by Norma Snyder. 1887 and 1889 wholesaler listings are partial, missing last names in the alphabet, 1890, 1895 missing their entirety. No copies of listings in any category for 1896, 1898, 1899, 1900, 1901. 1888 has a partial list of Importers (not found in copies for other years). 1905 copies include Saloons (not incorporated). 1906 is incomplete for distillers, missing wholesalers.
1881 witnessed a major city-wide street reorganization so all addresses change. In 1909, there is a second renumbering and this year shows both old and the new number in brackets.
