Hardin's Creek Middle Distillation Profile 8 Year Old Bourbon

The Hardin's Creek Distillation Profile Series explores how variations in distillation proof influence the character of bourbon. Produced at the James B. Beam Distilling Co.'s Clermont campus in Kentucky, this limited-release 8-year-old straight bourbon was distilled at 115 proof, placing it between the High and Low Distillation Profile expressions. This intermediate approach preserves more grain-derived compounds than higher-proof distillation while producing a lighter distillate than the 105-proof expression, illustrating how relatively small adjustments during production can affect the finished bourbon.
