Description: Little San Francisco History: The Cyrus Noble story is truly a San Francisco success story, with roots in our California gold rush. Cyrus Noble, himself, had tried his luck in the California gold fields, but unsuccessfully, and had returned to his home in Ohio. There, Cyrus took a job with the Freiberg-Workum distillery, in Lynchburg, Ohio, where his tasting and blending talents were soon recognized.By 1871, he was made superintendent of the distillery, and at this time, a brand of whiskey was named after him. The exact circumstance is somewhat shaded, but it is said that Cyrus was a famous drinker, and one day, while checking the premium vats, he fell in! Well, of course, after that, nothing would do but to name the whiskey – “Cyrus Noble.” At the same time, in 1871, Ernest Reuben Lilienthal, an attorney just out of Cincinnati Law School, decided to go into the wholesale liquor business in San Francisco. Ernest contracted with Freiberg’s and handled, exclusively, their products under their trademarks, as well as his own. Ernest apparently liked the Cyrus Noble anecdote and adopted “Cyrus Noble”as the trademark for his finest whiskey.
