Ancient Age is a brand that was first distributed in Canada in 1936, then in the USA from 1946. The distillery is located on the outskirts of Kentucky's capital Frankfort and is also called Leestown Distillery.
Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.
The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.
