Beam Distilling Co., aged a full seven years and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe expression pays homage to Basil Hayden Sr., the original \"Old Grand-Dad\" of American whiskey. Each year's release is produced from a single distillation season in accordance with the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897, meaning it is made by one distiller at one distillery and aged under U.S. government supervision. While the standard bonded Old Grand-Dad carries no age statement, this edition elevates the brand's classic high-rye recipe with a seven-year age statement. The annual series was introduced in 2025.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFull-bodied, with sweet, velvety caramel flavors and notes of charred oak and vanilla.
