The story
The origins date back to the wine and spirits merchant founded by Giacomo Justerini in London (1749). After various changes of ownership the company adopted the name Justerini & Brooks in the 19th century. The J&B Rare blend was devised in the early 1930s and marketed from 1932, originally aimed at the North American market. Today the brand is part of Diageo’s portfolio, while Justerini & Brooks maintains a long tradition as a wine and spirits merchant.
