History:

This classic is named after the Pendennis Club in Louisville, Kentucky, which is said by some to be the birthplace of the Old-Fashioned. The first known reference to this cocktail appears in the "Seductive American Cocktails" appendix in William Boothby's 1908 The World's Drinks and How to Mix Them book.
