If Sheriff Rosco had ever actually caught the Duke Boys and the Moonshine ran out, this is the whisky Uncle Jesse would have reached for.

Old Grand-Dad Bourbon whiskey is distilled at the Booker Noe Plant in Boston, Kentucky. The company was created by Raymond B. Hayden and named after his grandfather Basil Hayden, Sr, a well known distiller during his lifetime who is depicted on the front of each bottle.

The Hayden family's first commercial distillery was created in 1840 and the Whiskey has been in production since that time - despite several changes of ownership.

In 1899, Old Grand-Dad was sold to the Wathen family, whose broad interests in the whiskey business later formed the American Medicinal Spirits Company and the foundations of National Distillers Group. During prohibition, the company produced "medicinal whiskey" for the sick and blind. In 1987, National Distillers Group sold the spirits business to the James B. Beam Distilling Company.

Today the range consists of 114 proof, 100 proof bonded and 86 proof. This latter bottling has a mashbill comprising of 63% corn, 27% rye and 10% malted barley.
