Four generations later, the company is still in the wine and spirits business, under the stewardship of Jonathan Mitchell and his son Robert. The Mitchell family expanded into whiskey bonding in 1887, whereby they sent empty wine, sherry and port casks via horse and cart to the local Jameson Distillery, which were then filled and returned to the Mitchell's cellar warehouse. There, the whiskeys matured for many years under bond until they were ready to be bottled and sold.

The whiskey has matured in a combination of new bourbon and refill bourbon casks as well as sherry casks.
