Bourbon born from a collab of legends
“Legent” might seem like a typo, but that’s how Chaucer, for instance, wrote “legends”. Also, if you spell it differently, everyone notices. And legends are what we’re dealing with here: Fred Noe, Jim Beam’s seventh-generation Master Distiller, and Shinji Fukuyo, Suntory’s fifth Chief Blender, joined forces and created something spectacular, a Bourbon so masterful we’ll start using the word legend with a “t” once again.
The demiurgic duo sat and deliberated about the recipe for years, and finally decided for this wonderful expression. It’s Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey partially finished in wine and Sherry casks. The result is wild and iconic – just like its creators. You should enjoy it neat or on the rocks, but be sure Legend will be the main protagonist if you put it in a cocktail.

Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Bourbon Is a ''new barrel Spirit'': One of the legal requirements for Bourbon is that it only be aged in brand new oak charred barrels.
J.B.'s father, Joseph W. Dant, invented a still made from a poplar log at 16, as he couldn't afford a copper still. Although crude, it worked exceptionally well!
Bourbon must be made from a grain mixture that is at least 51% corn.
"Remember that iconic poster from World War II showing Rosie the Riveter as a patriotic American woman doing her part for the war effort? Well, hundreds of businesses did their part too, and the Bourbon distillers stepped right up with ‘em.
Distilleries all over Kentucky and Tennessee were re-tooled to distill fuel alcohol and ferment penicillin cultures to treat wounded soldiers."
Distilleries all over Kentucky and Tennessee were re-tooled to distill fuel alcohol and ferment penicillin cultures to treat wounded soldiers."
Bourbon matures quicker than Scotch due to higher temperatures in American warehouses.
Limestone Branch Distillery, which produces Yellowstone Bourbon, also makes Minor Case Bourbon and Bowling & Burch Gin.
