History.
In 1833 William Snyder and his brother John bought the Petersburg steam mill in Boone County and converted it into the company's original the Petersburg Distillery. The original distillery was plotted on a 1000-acre tract of land. In1860 the Distillery had produced one million gallons of whisky and in 1861 the Col. William Appleton (who is the Snyder's son in law) bought the distillery after the Snyder's brothers assets were seized by the government due to 15 writs of "fiera facias" issued against William Snyder by as many men asking for repayment of debts ranging from $500 to $6,000, the debt totaling $30,000. Due to the $1.50/gallon liquor tax imposed on distributors during the Civil War, Appleton sold the Distillery to Joseph C. Jenkins and James Gaff. 
By 1880, the Petersburg Distillery had become the largest distillery in the state of Kentucky. By 1910 the distillery had been shut down due to lack of visitors to the town Petersburg and the final reserves were sold off by 1918. Most of the Boone County Distillery complex was gone by 1919, tangible remains of the facility endure. The original distillery is an archaeological site with remnants of stone and brick foundations and walls.
The Distillery was re-established in 2015 at a new location in Independence, Kentucky. The current owners are Jack Wells and Josh Quinnin.
