Hardin's Creek 8 Year Low Distillation Profile Straight Bourbon

Discover what happens when distillers slow things down. Hardin's Creek 8 Year Low Distillation Profile is a Kentucky straight bourbon built around a 105-proof first-distillation target, then given eight full years to mature before bottling at 109 proof. It's one of three expressions in the Distillation Series from James B. Beam Distilling Co., a collection designed around a simple question: what if the only thing you changed was the first distillation setting? With the mash bill and fermentation held constant, the Low expression isolates that single variable, and the results speak for themselves. Expect concentrated caramel, dark chocolate, and toasted nuts, with a smoky edge of barrel char running through every sip. It's a deeper, heavier pour than its Distillation Series siblings, the Middle's rounded vanilla and toffee or the High's brighter orchard fruit, and a compelling choice for drinkers who appreciate rich, full-bodied bourbon with real depth. Pour it neat to experience the full range of flavor, or add a single ice cube to open up the caramel and chocolate notes even further.
