Baker's 7 Year 107 Proof Batch B-85-001 Small Batch Bourbon

7 years. 107 proof. Small batch. Baker’s Batch B-85-001 — from the founding era of the Jim Beam Small Batch Collection, named for Baker Beam, great-nephew of Jim Beam and master distiller at Jim Beam’s Boston, Kentucky distillery.

Baker’s is one of the four original members of the Jim Beam Small Batch Collection, introduced alongside Booker’s, Knob Creek, and Basil Hayden’s. Named for Baker Beam, who served as master distiller at Jim Beam’s Boston plant. The B-85-001 batch code places this bottle in the early era of the Baker’s program — before the format modernization that shifted to the 7-year statement and updated bottling. At 107 proof, Baker’s occupies the middle ground of the Small Batch Collection between the higher-proof Booker’s and the more approachable Basil Hayden’s.
