The story behind it

The maker

Old Grand-Dad was created by Raymond B. Hayden in 1885 to pay tribute to his grandfather, legendary distiller Basil Hayden. Today, this historic brand is produced by Beam Suntory, maintaining the high-rye mash bill that made it a bartender favorite.

How it is made

Named in honor of Basil Hayden, this high-rye recipe has been celebrated for over a century. It is crafted at the Jim Beam distillery in Kentucky, utilizing traditional column stills and deep-charred American oak barrels.
