southern society

[Unregistered]

i found a couple bottles in my basement and want to find another if possible. the bottle says "southern society, 100 proof, made in the grand old traditon by southern society distilling co. lawerenceburg indiana, liqueur. i have searched everywhere and come up with nothing on it so any info would be great.

I will see if I can dig up any info. In the meantime, if you could post photos, that would be great!

So far we have found out from Chris Morris (master distiller for Woodford Reserve) that it's probably from the late 1930s or early '40s and must have been a Schenley brand since they controlled the Lawrenceburg plant.

Photos?

The label and bottle kind of reminds me of the product now called "Southern Comfort" First thing it hit me when I saw it.
