Distillery

Jim Beam is one of the most iconic names in American bourbon, with roots that stretch back to 1795 and seven generations of family distilling. Built in Clermont, Kentucky, the brand helped define what bourbon is today: approachable, consistent, and unmistakably American. Through Prohibition, economic shifts, and changing tastes, Jim Beam endured by staying true to its core process—using the same family yeast strain and time-tested methods for centuries. Today, it balances mass appeal with deep heritage, producing everything from everyday staples to long-aged expressions like the 11 Year Old that showcase the patience and craft behind the label.
