Since Old Grand Dad 114 has become more widely available again, we’d thought we revisit this under the radar value bourbon. Made with Jim Beam’s slightly higher rye recipe, the same as in Basil Hayden, and bottled without age statement at 114 proof. The normally “foxy” yeast and orange peel characteristic of Jim Beam is on full display with fruit, yeast, and oak being pushed forward by the higher proof. Light and fruity on the nose, but with bigger oak than regular Jim Beam, this is an easy every day sipper to fall in love with.
