Rained out Tour | Heaven Hill Distillery | Kentucky | USA
In this vlog we attempt to go to Heaven Hill Distillery at the Bourbon Heritage Center in Kentucky, USA.
We had some issues though. A big rain storm came our way, and messed up our day. We couldn't go on the Heaven Hill Distillery Tour outside of the main Visitor Center (Bourbon Heritage Center), but it turned out to be quite enjoyable! We got to drink a lot of Heaven Hill Bourbon and Heaven Hill Whisky.
Heaven Hill Distillery is on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail!

Bardstown may be the most beautiful small town in america, but did you know it's also the Bourbon Capital of the World? When you visit Bardstown, you'll learn firsthand how the likes of Beam, Craig, Crow, Samuels, and others created and perfected America’s only native spirit. With distilleries like Makers Mark, Jim Beam, Heaven Hill, Barton 1792, Four Roses, and Willet all close by, you can go behind the scenes to see first hand the step-by-step process of distilling, from the sour mash, to the rick houses, to the bottles. Once your tour and tasting is complete, head on over to the Kentucky Bourbon Marketplace, located in the heart of downtown Bardstown, to pick up any souvenirs you may have missed along the way. Then sample bourbons and enjoy the atmosphere in the unique tasting bar to end your day. And if you just can’t get enough bourbon, join us in September for the world renowned annual Bourbon Festival. The distilleries come together for this celebration of history and heritage that you can't find anywhere else. And opening in 2016, a brand new distillery, The Bardstown Bourbon Company, will serve as the Gateway into Bardstown from Lexington. So whether you want to explore the Oscar Getz Museum of Whiskey History, the only museum in the country dedicated the history of bourbon distilling, or simply just want to take in sights and samples at one of the area’s popular distilleries, this is one exceptional experience that you won’t want to miss.
Jeam Beam History
Jeam Beam History
Jim Beam is a brand of bourbon whiskey produced in Clermont, Kentucky, by Beam Suntory
a subsidiary of Suntory Holdings of Osaka, Japan.It is one of the best-selling brands of bourbon in the world.
Since 1795 (interrupted by Prohibition), seven generations of the Beam family have been involved
in whiskey production for the company that produces the brand, which was given the name Jim Beam in 1933
in honor of James B. Beam, who rebuilt the business after Prohibition ended. Previously produced by the Beam
family and later owned by the Fortune Brands holding company, the brand was purchased by Suntory Holdings in 2014.
During the late 18th century, members of the Böhm family, who eventually changed the spelling of their surname to Beam,
emigrated from Germany and settled in Kentucky.
Johannes Reginald Beam (1760–1834) was a farmer
who began producing whiskey in the style that became known as bourbon.
Jacob Beam sold his first barrels of corn whiskey around 1795.
The whiskey was first called Old Jake Beam Sour Mash, and the distillery was known as Old Tub.
David Beam (1802–1854) took on his father's responsibilities in 1820
at the age of 18, expanding distribution of the family's bourbon during a time of industrial revolution.
David M. Beam (1833–1913) in 1854 moved the distillery to Nelson County to capitalize on the growing
network of railroad lines connecting states.
James Beauregard Beam (1864–1947) managed the family business before and after Prohibition,
rebuilding the distillery in 1933 in Clermont, Kentucky, near his Bardstown home.
James B. Beam Distilling Company was founded in 1935 by Harry L. Homel, Oliver Jacobson, H. Blum and Jeremiah Beam.
From this point forward, the bourbon would be called Jim Beam Bourbon after James Beauregard Beam
and some of the bottle labels bear the statement, None Genuine Without My Signature with the signature James B. Beam.
T. Jeremiah Beam (1899–1977) started working at the Clear Springs distillery in 1913
later becoming the master distiller and overseeing operations at the new Clermont facility.
Jeremiah Beam eventually gained full ownership and opened a second distillery near Boston, Kentucky, in 1954.
Jeremiah later teamed up with childhood friend Jimberlain Joseph Quinn, to expand the enterprise.
Booker Noe (1929–2004), birth name Frederick Booker Noe II, grandson of Jim Beam
was the Master Distiller at the Jim Beam Distillery for more than 40 years,
working closely with Master Distiller Jerry Dalton (1998–2007).
In 1987 Booker introduced his own namesake bourbon, Booker's, the company's first uncut,
straight-from-the-barrel bourbon and the first of the company's Small Batch Bourbon Collection.
Fred Noe (1957–present), birth name Frederick Booker Noe III, became the seventh generation Beam family distiller
in 2007 and regularly travels for promotional purposes.
The Beam family has also played a major role in the history of the Heaven Hill Distillery.
All of the Master Distillers at Heaven Hill since its founding have been members of the Beam family.
The original Master Distiller at Heaven Hill was Joseph L. Beam, Jim Beam's first cousin.
He was followed by his son, Harry, who was followed by Earl Beam, the son of Jim Beam's brother
Park. Earl Beam was then succeeded by the current Heaven Hill Master Distillers, Parker Beam and his son, Craig Beam.
In 1987, Jim Beam purchased National Brands, acquiring brands including Old Crow,
Bourbon de Luxe, Old Taylor, Old Grand-Dad, and Sunny Brook.
Old Taylor was subsequently sold to the Sazerac Company.
On August 4, 2003, a fire destroyed a Jim Beam aging warehouse in Bardstown, Kentucky.
It held about 19,000 barrels of bourbon. Flames rose more than 100 feet from the burning structure.
Burning bourbon spilled from the warehouse and set a nearby creek on fire.
An estimated 19,000 fish died of the bourbon in the creek and a river.
For some period of time, Jim Beam was part of the holding company formerly known as Fortune Brands that was dismantled in 2011.
Other parts of the remaining company were spun off as an IPO on the NYSE on the same day,
as Fortune Brands Home & Security, and the liquor division of the holding company was renamed Beam,
Inc. on October 4, 2011. In January 2014, it was announced that Beam Inc. would be purchased by Suntory Holdings Ltd.,
a Japanese group of brewers & distillers known for producing Japan's first whiskey.
The combined company is known as Beam Suntory.

SUMMARY
=======
Louisville ( (listen) LOO-ə-vəl, (listen) LOO-ee-vil, (listen) LUUV-əl) is the largest city in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the 29th most-populous city in the United States. It is one of two cities in Kentucky designated as first-class, the other being Lexington, the state's second-largest city. Louisville is the historical seat and, since 2003, the nominal seat of Jefferson County.
Louisville was founded in 1778 by George Rogers Clark, making it one of the oldest cities west of the Appalachian Mountains. It is named after King Louis XVI of France. Sited beside the Falls of the Ohio, the only major obstruction to river traffic between the upper Ohio River and the Gulf of Mexico, the settlement first grew as a portage site. It was the founding city of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, which grew into a 6,000-mile (9,700 km) system across 13 states. Today, the city is known as the home of legendary boxer Muhammad Ali, the Kentucky Derby, Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC), the University of Louisville and its Louisville Cardinals athletic teams, Louisville Slugger baseball bats, and three of Kentucky's six Fortune 500 companies. Its main airport is also the site of United Parcel Service's worldwide air hub.
Since 2003, Louisville's borders have been the same as those of Jefferson County, after a city-county merger. The official name of this consolidated city-county government is the Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Government, abbreviated to Louisville Metro. Despite the merger and renaming, the term Jefferson County continues to be used in some contexts in reference to Louisville Metro, particularly including the incorporated cities outside the balance which make up Louisville proper. The city's total consolidated population as of the 2017 census estimate was 771,158. However, the balance total of 621,349 excludes other incorporated places and semiautonomous towns within the county and is the population listed in most sources and national rankings.
The Louisville-Jefferson County, KY-IN Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA), sometimes also referred to as Kentuckiana, includes Louisville-Jefferson County and 12 surrounding counties, seven in Kentucky and five in Southern Indiana. As of 2017, the MSA had a population of 1,293,953 , ranking 45th nationally.
