If your a fan of craft Kentucky Bourbons, most are made at the Jim Beam distillery
(which is now owned by Japanese distiller Suntory, since January of this year)

Among it's brands are Makers Mark & Knob Creek as well as Scotch whiskies Teacher's and Laphroaig
As well as other spirits, such as Sauza tequila, Courvoisier cognac and Harvey's Bristol Cream.

Most high end spirits (around 94 percent on the market) come from a small handful of larger name brand distilleries
but those small "hand crafted" companies (which bottle the same whiskies) don't really want you to know this
yet these spirits are still of high quality and should not be mistaken for mass market brands made & sold by
the big companies, also.
