Hardin’s Creek Kentucky Series Clermont is a 17-year old bourbon produced by James B. Beam Distilling Co. as part of the Hardin’s Creek brand family. Each was distilled at the company’s main campus in Clermont, KY, and this expression was aged at Beam’s Boston, KY campus.
The Hardin’s Creek Kentucky Series is made up of three bourbons that are meant to be an exploration of “Kentucky terroir,” highlighting how different landscapes have influenced the flavor characteristics of each whiskey.
Within The Kentucky Series, all three expressions are 17-year-old Bourbons that have been aged at one of three campuses of the James B. Beam Distilling Company: Clermont, Frankfort, and Boston. Although they share the same mashbill and age, the bourbons were aged at different locations within the campuses.
The Booker Noe campus in Boston, Kentucky is one of a kind. The rack houses are spread out generously in the golden sunshine and clear air, ideal for maturation. These unique conditions mean fast, richer aging. It’s bold and characterful, much like Booker Noe himself.
