Produced at the historic Jim Beam Distillery on the James B. Beam campus in Clermont, this bourbon is made from a carefully balanced mashbill of 77% corn, 13% rye, and 10% malted barley. Aged for a minimum of four years in new charred American oak barrels, the whiskey is bottled at 40% ABV, allowing the core flavours to shine through without overwhelming heat.

Nose: Caramel and vanilla lead the way, supported by toasted corn, toffee, and a hint of oak, with lighter notes of cinnamon and dark fruit emerging as the glass opens.

Palate: Bright and approachable, with sweet vanilla, honey, and gentle black pepper dancing across a medium body, complemented by lightly toasted grain and a touch of butterscotch.

Finish: Surprisingly warm for its proof, with lingering cinnamon spice, creamy vanilla, and a pleasant oak backbone that builds gradually without turning bitter.

This bourbon shines in a classic Old Fashioned or Whiskey Sour, though it’s equally enjoyable served neat or with a splash of water to open up the sweeter notes. The familiar profile makes it an excellent choice for home bartenders building their spirits collection, bourbon newcomers exploring Kentucky whiskey, or anyone seeking a dependable bottle for mixing and sipping alike. A practical option for those who appreciate quality American bourbon at an accessible price point, perfect for casual evenings or mixing drinks for friends.
