James B Beam Distling Company in Kentucky is undoubtedly the Jim Beam, also known as the White Label. But there are also a group of other bourbons and rye whiskey, such as the gym beam smaller beach collection (nob crack, bookers, basal headon, and baker). Another neglected but the cute brand is the Old Grand Dead, and this historically low shelf Bourbon has just received an important upgrade in the form of a seven -year -old statement.
The new release is called Old Grand Father, 7 -year -old Bonded Bourbon, and the name has described it as much. It is a 7 -year -old bourbon that is in the bottle in the bond, that is, it is at least 4 years old, absolutely 100 proofs, and one distillery and one ooson season. This is not the release of the bond in the first bottle by the Old Grand Father, however, because many of his fans are certainly familiar. The brand was founded in 1882, and after more than a century, James B Beam Distling Company (known as Beam Inc. at the time) acquired it with the old Kava and the old overhole. The current old Grande Deadline up contains high -rye bourbon (like Michelle) like Basel Hayden), which is expressed in a bottle on 80 -proof, 114 -proof, and 100 proofs that are a few years shorter than this new release. Last year, the brand was expanded, which includes an excellent (and expensive) 16 -year -old bourbon, which also has a bottle on 100 proof.
Distillery did not provide all the information about the new bourbon, as well as it was barred in the spring of 2018. (Remember, whiskey is built during an Oson season to have a bond in a bottle of whiskey, which gives it something old.) Interestingly, and perhaps by coincidence, this release is about 7 years old. However, this bourbon is very different, as it is made of a wheat mesh bill, as contrary to the high -lying guidance used for the old Grand Father. We have not yet received this new bourbon sample, but official notes of tasting have explained the caramel and vanilla on the nose. Sweet carimal, chard oak, and vanilla on the palate. And a complete physical finish with caramel flavors (it’s a whole of caramel).
It would be interesting for the old Grand Response fans to compare this new release with the bond expression in the original bottle to find out how the new cherry Oak has changed to whiskey. The bourbon is right now, so check your local wine store to find the bottle. In the meantime, you may find the rest of the old Grand Deadlineup that is now available to buy on websites like wine tomorrow.
