History
The Yellowstone brand of bourbon was introduced in 1872 by the J. B. Dant Distillery in Gethsemani, Kentucky (near Bardstown in Nelson County).[1][2]
In 1920, the Yellowstone Bourbon brand was produced by James Thompson and Brothers and was bottled for "medicinal purposes only" during Prohibition.[3] Thompson and Brothers was one of only six companies that were granted permits to bottle medicinal whiskey (from existing stocks – distilling was not allowed).[4]
