This straight rye whiskey is made by brothers Steve and Paul Beam, descendants of the famous Beam dynasty. The bottling is named after their great-grandfather. Untypically, the Limestone Branch Distillery in Lebanon, Kentucky gives this rye a maturation in Spanish sherry casks.
Minor Case Sherry Cask Finished first matured in fresh American white oak barrels (Virgin Oak) for an undefined period of time and was then further matured in former sherry barrels. Bottled at 45% vol. Alcohol, without coloring.
Aroma: Spicy with earthy notes, hints of sweetness and fruit, oak and sherry.
Taste: Deeply grainy with ripe citrus fruits, spices, mild sweetness and nuts.
