Old Prentice was the flagship brand of notable distiller JTS Brown & Sons, owned by John Thompson Street Brown Jr. and his half-brother George Garvin Brown — the original co-founders of the Brown-Forman Corporation.The Old Prentice distillery was one of the original distilleries in Anderson County. It was rebuilt in 1910 by JTS Brown & Sons and changed hands at least 10 times over the last two centuries. It now bears the name Four Roses which was given to the historic distilleryby Joseph E. Seagrams & Sons. Old Prentice was distilled until Prohibition, then again starting in 1933. History shows it was distilled in various locations before production ceased in the early 2000s. A brand reborn, Old Prentice is now stewarded by a family that coincidentally shares the name. Their passion for preserving the legacy of this classic American whiskey ensures its revival will be notable and legacy enduring.
