Old Grand-Dad 114 Proof Bourbon Whiskey
Straight Bourbon Whiskey | 57% ABV (114 Proof) | 750mL
Process & Profile
Old Grand-Dad 114 is a bold Kentucky straight bourbon crafted at the Jim Beam distillery using a high-rye mash bill, typically around 63% corn, 27% rye, and 10% malted barley. It is bottled at 114 proof without chill filtration, offering a nearly barrel-strength experience. Known for its fiery personality and robust flavor, this expression pays tribute to Basil Hayden Sr., whose image appears on the label. It has remained a cult favorite among bourbon enthusiasts for its punch and price.
