The story behind it

The maker

Formed as a collaborative masterpiece, Legent brings together the East and West through the expertise of Beam Suntory. Fred Noe representing the eighth generation of Beam distillers in Kentucky joins forces with Shinji Fukuyo, the fifth Chief Blender in Suntory history.

How it is made

This bourbon starts with historic Kentucky distilling traditions before undergoing a secondary aging process in select California red wine and Sherry casks. The final liquid is meticulously blended by Shinji Fukuyo at the Suntory distillery & production estate using Japanese blending techniques.
