The story behind it

The maker

Seven generations of the Beam family have overseen the distilling of Jim Beam since Jacob Beam sold his first barrel in 1795. Rebuilt by James B. Beam after Prohibition, the distillery remains a cornerstone of classic American whiskey production.

How it is made

Crafted at the legendary James B. Beam Distilling Co. in Clermont, Kentucky, this bourbon utilizes a time-tested family yeast strain.
