In addition, early buzz among connoisseurs has bolstered anticipation of the brand39s significance. The five year old product was originally distilled in January 2000. The recipe39s maturity was evident from the beginning. 39We like to think we39ve contributed something to the whiskey world that hadn39t been done before. I hope you39ll agree with us that this was a worthwhile experiment,39 said Beam. The current bottling features a gold medallion label on a clear glass bottle with wheat etchings and a wax closure.
