Following the end of Prohibition in the United States in 1933, a group of investors, including the famous Joseph L. Beam, founded Heaven Hill distillery in 1935 to prepare for the rebounding market. Situated on a vast estate spanning hundreds of acres of land, Heaven Hill boasts 22 multi-story rick-houses. Now referred to as the “Heaven Hill Bernheim Distillery,” it holds the second-largest Bourbon Whiskey inventory globally and is the last remaining family-owned distillery in Kentucky. In 2019, Heaven Hill retired their hallmark 6-year-old bourbon and launched their 7-year-old Bottled-in-Bond flagship bourbon, which received an impressive overall score of 92 points and ranked #4 on Whisky Advocate’s Top 20 Whiskies of 2019.
