Old Grand Dad Bonded 100 Proof Bourbon (Jim Beam) 3cl Sample

Old Grand Dad Bonded 100 Proof Bourbon (Jim Beam) 3cl Sample

This variant of the well-known Old Grand Dad was aged for at least 4 years and bottled at a strong 50% vol. Since it comes from only one season and was distilled by a single distiller, the whiskey can call itself 'bottled in bond'.

Jim Beam is the parent company for this rich indulgent bourbon.

Normally unavailable so here it is in reasonably priced samples so that you can either choose 3cl or 5cl of this.

Tasting Notes 

Nose : A spicy nose with hints of dried fruits

Palate : Medium-bodied – shows some sweet vanilla, but more evident is the peppery spiciness displayed by notes of cloves and cinnamon

Finish:  Long and very spicy

About Old Grand Dad 

Basil Hayden Sr. - known as Old Grand-Dad to the generations that followed - made bourbon the way he wanted. He went against the traditional “grain” of the time and chose to distill his bourbon with a higher percentage of rye. This way of crafting bourbon was likely something he handed down to his son. And in turn, his grandson. That was Colonel R.B. Hayden who would justly name his bourbon after his Old Grand-Dad. The recipe today remains inspired by Basil’s original with complex flavors and an unmistakable spiciness. First bottled in 1882, very little has changed about it. And that’s the only way we’d have it.
