✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Jim Beam's '1795' Ultra Premium Straight Bourbon is a legendary liquid tribute to the year Johannes Jacob Boehm—who later anglicized his name to Beam—sold his very first barrel of corn whiskey in Kentucky. Crafted in the heart of the Bluegrass State, this highly limited release celebrates over two centuries of family distilling heritage. Distilled from a classic mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley, and aged in deeply charred new American white oak barrels, it embodies the pinnacle of the Beam family's craft. The limestone-filtered water of Kentucky and the dramatic seasonal temperature swings of the local climate work in tandem to extract rich vanilla, toasted oak, and deep caramel notes from the wood. This ultra-premium bottling represents a historic milestone, offering a complex, full-bodied sensory journey through American whiskey history.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
James B. Beam Distilling Co. blev grundlagt i 1795 af Jacob Beam og udgør i dag en uomgængelig hjørnesten i Kentuckys bourbonhistorie. Destilleriet har hjemme i Clermont, omgivet af de bølgende kalkstensbakker i Bullitt og Nelson counties. Her udnytter huset områdets naturlige kildevand, som er rigt på calcium og fri for jern, hvilket bidrager til at rense mæsken og sikre destillatets fine renhed. Produktionen tager afsæt i en historisk, proprietær gærstamme, der har været dyrket uafbrudt siden forbudstidens ophør, parret med sour-mash-gæring og traditionel destillation på kolonnekedler. Modningen foregår på kraftigt forkullede fade af ny amerikansk hvideg, som lagres i høje, åbne rickhouses. Her udsættes fadene for fastlandsklimaets markante temperatursvingninger, hvilket trækker dybe smagsnuancer ud af træet. Under kyndig ledelse af syvende- og ottendegenerations Master Distillers, Fred Noe og Freddie Noe, skabes referencebourbons som den ikoniske Jim Beam White Label, Single Barrel, Double Oak samt Straight Rye – et levende bevis på uafbrudt amerikansk whiskeyhåndværk af højeste karat.
