James B. Beam Distilling Co. Launches Hardin’s Creek Kentucky Series
James B. Beam Distilling Co. has announced the Hardin’s Creek Kentucky Series, a three-part limited release of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskeys that explore Kentucky terroir.
Comprised of Hardin’s Creek Clermont, Hardin’s Creek Frankfort, and Hardin’s Creek Boston, each expression in the Kentucky Series is a 17 year old Bourbon laid down with the same mash bill at the same time, but aged at different James B. Beam Distilling Company campuses: Clermont, Frankfort, and Boston.
Each expression in the Kentucky Series is bottled at 55% ABV and carries a suggested retail price of $169.99. The Kentucky Series will be released one expression at a time, beginning with Hardin’s Creek Clermont on June 1st, Hardin’s Creek Frankfort on August 1st, and Hardin’s Creek Boston on September 1st.
Hardin’s Creek Clermont is described as having aromas of “burnt sugar tripled with matured toasted oak and sweet vanilla,” with “forward caramelized oak, followed by brown spices and hints of seasoned leather” on the palate, finishing “smooth and sweet with lingering warmth.”
Tasting notes for Hardin’s Creek Frankfort and Boston will be revealed upon release.
