J. B. Thome & Co. Inc. – Celebrating 40 Years in Business

J. B. Thome & Co. Inc. is the largest volume brokerage for bulk distilled spirits based in the United States. The company has cultivated the resources that once only serviced the largest and most established of bottlers to also meet the needs of even the newest of craft blenders.

James Bert Thome founded the company in 1977, after nearly thirty years working for a large spirits producer. As a quality control manager, taster and blender, in the beginning, this took him from Louisville to Lawrenceburg, Scotland and finally Manhattan.
