In 1878 famous Kentucky Whiskey distillers, Julius Freiberg & Levi Workum, started bottling their own Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey using the brand name, “Lexington Club”. The Lexington Club brand became popular and was sold in “practically every state in the Union”. In 1899, Freiberg & Workum sold their distillery to the Whiskey Trust, which continued high-volume sales of The Lexington Club brand. We honor these entrepreneurial giants, who dominated the Kentucky and Ohio Valley whiskey industries with the re-introduction of this copper pot distilled Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey.
