Not even Marina City could keep Hiram Walker in Peoria. In this 1969 ad for Hiram Walker’s “Ten High” straight bourbon whiskey, a man offers a drink over his balcony in what is most likely the west tower.
“Come over soon,” invites the ad copy. “We have something good for you.”
At the time, Hiram Walker & Sons Inc., with a distillery built in 1933, was located in Peoria, Illinois. A French company, Pernod Ricard, currently owns Hiram Walker. The distillery was purchased by ADM in 1980 and now makes ethanol.
