After much praise from family and friends for chocolates Ruth Hanly (Booe) and Rebecca Gooch had given them during Christmas, the two substitute school teachers decided they were better candy makers than teachers. Rebecca Ruth Bourbon Balls was founded in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1919. The idea of mixing candy and bourbon together came in 1936, after Ruth worked on the recipe for two years perfecting the still-secret process for blending Evan Williams 100 proof Bourbon with dark chocolate.
