Jim Beam 8 Year Old Beam's Choice Chipmunk Decanter (1969-1976) 757ml 4/5th Quart 75.7cl

A rare decanter that is from 50+ years ago. We like to specialise in the strange and difficult to locate bottles. We are surprised at how much of a good condition this one is in.

A Jim Beam decanter containing an 8 year old bourbon, distilled and bottled at their distillery in Clermont, Kentucky. The decanter features artist James Lockhart's painting of a Chipmunk.

Distilled in 1969 and bottled in 1976 almost 50 years ago

About Jim Beam:

The Beam family (anglicised from the German surname Böhm in the 18th century) are the greatest dynasty in all of American distilling, with members involved in nearly every Kentucky distillery during the 20th century. Perhaps none more important however than James "Jim" Beauregard Beam, who rebuilt his family business following the repeal of Prohibition, re-opening the famous Clermont distillery in 1935. The company is now the best-selling bourbon brand in the world (due to Jack Daniel's refusing to be categorised as such). They operate two Kentucky distilleries, the eponymous Jim Beam in Clermont and the Booker Noe distillery in nearby Boston, and since their purchase of National Distillers in 1987 also have a wealth of historic brands under their banner. Since 2014 the company has been a subsidiary of Suntory in Japan, which has widened its portfolio into the Scotch and Japanese whisky industries as well.
