HOW IS OUR AMERICAN SINGLE MALT WHISKEY MADE?
OUR NAME
CLERMONT
It's about provenance, but also terroir (like wine).
Single malts are almost an agricultural product—highlighting the flavor of a single geographic location, and where that product was distilled and matured.
A single malt from Clermont, Kentucky will taste different from a single malt from Colorado, for example.
STEEP
It's about process—literally the steeping of the malt.
But it’s also about this product being steeped in the culture of Kentucky and the history of Beam.
It’s steeped in family tradition, in bourbon tradition, and in an agricultural community.
FLAVOR THAT COULD ONLY COME FROM CLERMONT
Kentucky limestone filters impurities. Climate pulls flavor from barrel to liquid. All so the single grain in Clermont Steep can shine.
THE DISTILLER
8th Generation Master Distiller, Fred B. Noe
THE PROCESS
Freddie Noe tested 67 different barley varieties to find the perfect mash bill and fermented it with Beam family jug yeast. After countless tastings and evaluations, an American Single Malt Whiskey worthy of the Beam name emerged.
OVER 200 YEARS OF PUSHING FLAVOR FORWARD
Clermont Steep pulls incredible depth of flavor from a single grain, taking American Whiskey in an entirely new direction. It's the ultimate expression of American Single Malt Whiskey - and we're just getting started.
