Jim Beam Signature Craft High Rye 11 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey (45% ABV)

Jim Beam Signature Craft High Rye is an 11-year-old bourbon that incorporates a significantly higher rye content than typical Beam expressions, resulting in a distinctive fermentation and aging process. This limited-edition release from the Signature Craft series stays true to Beam’s traditional sour mash fermentation and copper column distillation methods but pushes the boundaries with a spicier, more assertive grain bill. The bourbon is matured for 11 years in new, heavily charred American oak barrels stored in Kentucky rickhouses, benefiting from the region’s temperature swings to enhance wood interaction. Bottled at 45% ABV and non-chill filtered, this small-batch release offers a glimpse into how different grain ratios can transform the character of a bourbon over extended aging. Crafted with intention and precision, the High Rye edition exemplifies Beam’s blending of experimental curiosity with centuries-old bourbon heritage.
