Early Times Whiskey Half Gallon
Description: | Early Times Whiskey 1.75 Ml Half Gallon Hard to find! A little bourbon history Early Times started out as a bourbon back in 1860, and remained so until the early 1980s.It all started with our founder, Jack Beam (Jims uncle), who began working at his familys distillery at the tender age of 15. In short order, he was running the operation and in 1860 built his own distillery at Early Times Station, Kentucky. Beam named his whisky Early Times, both as a tribute to its place of origin and as a nod to the old-world craftsmanship that goes into making it. He believed in the early times method of whisky-making: mashing grain in small tubs, boiling the beer and whisky in copper stills over open fires. Its an abiding belief that has stayed with the Early Times brand ever since. By 1953 Early Times was the best-selling bourbon in the world The first Kentucky whisky hit the scene back in the late 1700s, when an unknown farmer stored his new whisky in a charred barrel. Its the char that gives Kentucky whisky its smooth-drinking taste and distinctive red color. Like most bottled whiskies, Early Times Whisky came into being later â 1860 to be exact â at a place called Early Times Station, Kentucky. Kentucky water is perfect for making whisky. And the distillery carefully treats the water to insure that it is iron-free and therefore perfect for crafting a great whisky. Kentucky soil also plays its part, yielding plentiful crops of corn, barley and rye.It wasn't until 1920 that Early Times really started to prosper. That was the year Congress passed the Volstead Act, and Prohibition began. During Prohibition Et was the one brand that Bf purchased to augment its medicinal whisky inventory as a stand alone product. This was due to Early Times' 63 year reputation as "the whisky that made Kentucky whisky famous".The Brown-Forman Company acquired Early Times in 1923 and over the next 30 years made Early Times the best-selling whisky in the country. Today its smoothness is savored in over 40 countries.
