Now that things are making more sense to me, I'll give it another read. My question about Beam was prompted by you noting Knob Creek distilled in Clermont and Bookers at Booker Noe. Is that the case or is Bookers distilled and aged at Clermont as well?erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07137218077630168614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840930092789285091.post-46450459116397822472014-05-24T14:47:54.242-05:002014-05-24T14:47:54.242-05:00And Maker's Mark, of course, is made at the Ma...And Maker's Mark, of course, is made at the Maker's Mark Distillery and nowhere else.Chuck Cowderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191121480961526039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840930092789285091.post-25844500459006300602014-05-24T14:46:49.921-05:002014-05-24T14:46:49.921-05:00I'm glad you found this useful, Eric.

I can help you with Beam, though. The Booker Noe plant essentially makes Beam white label.

I'm giving myself the Mother's Day gift. I've picked up everything so far you rec'd from the 13 distilleries except Old Forester Bday, Ridgemont 1792 & Rare Breed. I'm wondering if you can take it a step further adding company > distillery > mashbill.<br /><br />The Bday Bourbon is not available in my market, i.e. SF. It'll come later this year. Jim Beam's distilleries seem a bit of a mystery to me. Hard to get the facts of what is made where. <br /><br />Thanks for the post.erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07137218077630168614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-840930092789285091.post-17872543851913042312014-05-15T16:41:18.339-05:002014-05-15T16:41:18.339-05:00Buffalo Trace (standard, rye recipe bourbon), Larc...Buffalo Trace (standard, rye recipe bourbon), Larceny (wheated bourbon), Bulleit Bourbon (high rye bourbon).
