Soak up a bit of Kentucky with the Jim Beam Stillhouse

What is it?

This month Jim Beam will transport bourbon-loving Londoners over the rolling hills of Kentucky and into the world-class Jim Beam Stillhouse which will stand, for two nights only, in The Old Truman Brewery on Brick Lane, London.

Upon entry, guests will be welcomed into The Heritage Room where they will soak up the Kentucky scenery on the Stillhouse veranda, whilst hearing the story of Jim Beam.

Visitors will then travel through tunnels deep into the Stillhouse for an intriguing glimpse into the Distillation and Ageing Room, bringing them closer to the bourbon-making process.  Immersive theatre will bring to life the unique proprietary process used to create Jim Beam’s most intense member of the family, Devil’s Cut, whilst guests get a taste of the new bourbon.

In The Mixology Room bartenders will serve up a playful cocktail experience.  Here guests can enjoy the infused flavours of Red Stag by Jim Beam and Jim Beam Honey.

The journey will culminate with the unique opportunity for guests to make their mark on Jim Beam’s history, before being brought back out onto the bustling streets of Shoreditch, by signing their name on an authentic American oak barrel, which will be taken back to the distillery in Kentucky, filled and aged.  All Stillhouse attendees will then receive a bottle of Jim Beam White from the special barrel four years later.
