Jim Beam has announces the first line extension the Little Book series, which was started to showcase the work of 8th generation Beam Master Distiller Freddie Noe, the heir apparent to Fred Noe. This extension is called Little Book ‘The Infinite: Edition 1’ Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
At the Fred B. Noe Distillery (the one located in Clermont where the visitors go, not the larger production plant in Boston, Kentucky), Freddie Noe was experimenting with blending varying aged whiskeys, when he sought to blend barrels his father, Fred Noe, and grandfather, Booker Noe, laid down, resulting in a perfectly balanced profile forming ‘The Infinite’. Each year, new whiskey will be added to the blend, delivering an ever-evolving confluence of artistry for a unique experience while pushing the boundaries of flavor and tradition. It’s this initial, proprietary blend that sets the series apart from other Little Book chapters.
“My father and I are lucky enough to work together, side by side as Master Distillers, and I know he always dreamed of that with his own father, my Grandaddy Booker,” said the younger Noe. “This new series pays tribute to that dream and inspired the first Edition of Little Book ‘The Infinite’, a multigenerational liquid that will form the foundation of all future releases. Once a year, I’ll bottle some up for the world to try. So, savor this whiskey today, and come back in a year for its next evolution.”
Little Book ‘The Infinite: Edition 1’ includes the following liquids:
· Booker Noe’s Component: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Aged 20 years
· Fred Noe’s Component: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Aged 14 years
· Freddie Noe’s Component: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Aged 7 years
· Shared Family Component: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Aged 8 Years
Little Book ‘The Infinite: Edition 1’ will be available in limited quantities nationwide across the U.S., in-store and consumers can go tolittlebookwhiskey.com for more retail locations. The new blend was bottled at a cask strength of 59.65% ABV and priced at $199.99.
