Baker's

Kentucky, USA · 1992'den beri

Baker's Bourbon is part of Jim Beam's renowned Small Batch Collection, introduced in 1992 and named in honor of Baker Beam, grandnephew of Jim Beam and a long-serving master distiller at the distillery. Bottled at 107 proof (53.5% ABV), it carries a notably assertive character without sacrificing the approachability that defines Kentucky straight bourbon. The high-corn mashbill, combined with an extended aging period, yields rich layers of vanilla, caramel, toasted oak, dried fruit, and a subtle rye spice that lingers pleasantly on the finish. In 2019, Baker's transitioned to a single barrel format, meaning each bottle now reflects the unique character of one individual cask — a move that resonated deeply with collectors and connoisseurs alike. This shift underscored a commitment to transparency and individuality at a time when the bourbon renaissance was demanding exactly that. Baker's stands as a testament to the Beam family legacy: a whiskey that carries the weight of history in every sip.
