Founded in 1874 by the brothers Adam and Ben Chapeze, the whiskey is named after the Charter Oak in Hartford/Connecticut. Today, the whiskey belongs to Buffalo Trace and is produced in Frankfurt/Kentucky.
Whiskey production in the United States is dominated by about a dozen large distilleries, so that almost all whiskey sold comes from a single distillery, and blended whiskey is almost non-existent as a mixture of the whiskey of several distilleries.
The terms single barrel for whiskey from a single cask and small batch for whiskey from a relatively small number of casks have become established as distinguishing features.
