Established in 1810, the Old Overholt brand may not be Jim Beam’s most well- known series of expressions, but it is their oldest. After going through centuries of changes, and eventually being bought by Jim Beam in 1987, the current Old Overholt lineup is exclusively made up of rye whiskey in either the standard 43% ABV version, its bottled-in-bond version and now this new 10 year, cask strength limited edition. This new expression is the first time there has been a cask strength version of Old Overholt in almost half a decade!

The new Old Overholt 10 Year Cask Strength Rye is one of the oldest ryes ever released by Jim Beam, and represents a unique experiment where Jim Beam specially selected barrels of Old Overholt to age in their unique Escalator Warehouse V. This warehouse is unique due to its “elevator” barrel system – making it much easier to move barrels around the warehouse – and is known for the consistency of the whiskey aged there. The whiskey used in this release was distilled in the autumn and winter of 2012 and aged a minimum of 10 years. It was then bottled at a full cask strength of 60.5% ABV

United States

Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.
