Jim Beam is the world's top selling brand of bourbon whiskey, produced at this distillery in Clermont, Kentucky, which is part of the main tour of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail. Also included under the Jim Beam label are several other varieties of bourbon and whiskey, as well as a number of food products that include the bourbon as an ingredient. Beam traces its origins back to the distillery set up in 1795 by family patriarch Jacob Beam. Although the Beam / Noe family is still very much involved, Jim Beam Bourbon is owned by Beam Global Spirits & Wine, which is in turn owned by holding company Fortune Brands. The brand is named for James B. Beam (1864-1947), who ran his family's whiskey distillery from 1892 until 1944. The distillery served as a filming location in the movie "Stripes" (1981) as the Russian Army base.
