Beam Releases Little Book Chapter 10: All the Wiser
The James B. Beam Distilling Co. announced the release of Little Book Chapter 10: All the Wiser.
Since its inception, Little Book has been 8th-generation Master Distiller Freddie Noe’s personal playground: an annual series that honors his grandfather Booker’s approach to whiskey while carving out a distinctly modern perspective. But Chapter 10 is not just another installment – it’s the culmination of everything Freddie has learned along the way.
“Ten whole chapters of Little Book, and through every one of them, I’ve learned something new,” Noe said in a news release. “Back in the beginning, I looked at blends differently, focusing on percentages and ‘perfection.’ The whiskey sure tasted good, but I had a feeling I was missing out on something bigger.So, I set out on a journey to see what the whiskey could teach me.”
And so, Noe shifted his philosophy for this release. All The Wiser reflects a more intuitive approach, one that embraces the unpredictability of blending and allows the whiskey itself to lead. The result is a whiskey that feels more discovered than past releases.
This year’s blend draws from a spectrum of aged expressions across The James B. Beam Distilling Co. portfolio, including components finished in sherry and toasted bourbon casks.
“No matter how sure I am of the profile I want to get to, the whiskey has its own plans,” Noe said. “So now, I don’t push it towards one specific outcome.I guide it, and I let it guide me. With every chapter, I’ve gotten more at ease with the push and pull. Chapter 10 is only possible because of what I gleaned from the chapters before it.”
Bottled at 122.6 proof (61.3% ABV), All The Wiser is positioned to become one of the most sought-after chapters yet, a true collector’s bottle that tells a deeper story with every pour. It carries an SRP of $159.99.
