No two barrels of Baker’s are the same. Each is as unique as the man the bourbon is named for. Each barrel sits in its own unique place throughout our rickhouses, patiently aging for a minimum of seven years to extract the notes of vanilla trapped within the charred oak.

And with Baker’s there’s no batching or mixing. Each bottle is filled from one singular barrel. Which means inside each bottle is a big, bold bourbon, full of tiny subtle details that change barrel to barrel.

Every family has a rebel. Ours is baker.

He may be soft-spoken, but Jim Beam’s grand-nephew marched to his own drum. In his heyday, Baker would show up for work at the Clermont distillery on his motorcycle, wearing a black leather jacket and his wide-brimmed hat. When this sixth-generation distiller retired, his cousin Booker Noe created Baker’s Bourbon in his honor, inspired by his passion for bourbon and maverick nature.

Story time

I spent a good deal of my life up at the Clermont, KY distillery–For a time, I even lived in a house right there on the grounds. This land has been home to Jim Beam spirits for nearly a hundred years. Now, we make our special small batch bourbons here, too, carrying on the legacy of fine, handmade bourbon that's been a part of this family for seven generations. I'm proud to have my name on a piece of that legacy, a single barrel bourbon good enough to drink neat.

Pull up a glass

There’s no wrong way to drink Baker’s – whether it’s neat, on the rocks or in a cocktail, you’ll notice strong, traditional bourbon cues, like oak, caramel and vanilla. Bottled at 107 proof, the flavors inside each single barrel really shine through. This full-bodied bourbon really stands out in any cocktail.
