Southern Comfort

A bold sipper with a spicy punch.

In the 1870s, in the vibrant city of New Orleans, bartender Martin Wilkes Heron concocted a drink that defied categorization — think Whiskey, but make it smoother and more easy-going. Martin took the harsh, unrefined Whiskeys of the time and mixed them with a mysterious blend of fruits and spices to create the original recipe for Southern Comfort, initially called Cuffs and Buttons. In the late 1960s, it became the unofficial drink of rock and roll, thanks to the legendary Janis Joplin. — she never went anywhere without her trusty bottle of SoCo, and her fans followed suit. The brand has since been purchased by Sazerac, who brought it back to New Orleans and put a renewed focus on the Whiskey side of things.
