1792 Bourbon is a brand owned by Barton Brands. It was previously known as Ridgewood Reserve 1792, with 1792 referring to the year Kentucky became a state.
The Barton Brands distillery dates back to 1879, when it was called the Tom Moore Distillery. In 1934, Harry Teur bought the factory site and built Barton Brands on it. Barton belongs to the Sazerac Company.
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.
