In 1740, the Boehm family came to America to live the colonial dream; 48 years later, they moved to Kentucky and changed their name to ‘Beam’. Towards the end of the 18th century, German, Scottish and Irish settlers, who had brought their recipes from home with them, were already producing rye whisky in western Pennsylvania. However, when the US government offered incentives to settle in the West, many families moved to Kentucky. One of these farmers was Jacob Beam, who used his father’s whisky recipe to distil maize into a new, sweeter type of whisky, leading to the birth of bourbon.

Jim Beam Kentucky Straight Bourbon is regarded worldwide as the most popular bourbon whisky. When people talk about Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whisky, they are usually referring to Jim Beam White Label. The recipe for the White Label was developed in Kentucky over 200 years ago, and the bourbon is still produced using this traditional method today. It is aged for twice as long as required by the Whisky Act, which gives it its smooth and full-bodied flavour.
