Jim Beam Pineapple 700ml

Jim Beam Pineapple brings together Kentucky bourbon tradition and bright tropical flavour in a refreshingly accessible expression. Built on the classic Jim Beam bourbon base—crafted from a corn-dominant mashbill with rye and malted barley—this flavoured whiskey blends natural pineapple with the distillery’s signature vanilla, caramel, and oak character. At 32.5% ABV (65 proof), it sits below the threshold for bourbon classification but delivers a versatile, easy-drinking style that’s equally at home on the rocks or in a highball.

The James B. Beam Distilling Co. has been operating in Clermont, Kentucky since 1795, making it one of the longest-standing bourbon dynasties in American whiskey. This pineapple expression takes the distillery’s traditional bourbon and infuses it with natural pineapple flavouring, creating a spirit that balances fruit-forward sweetness with underlying bourbon warmth. It’s been recognised with Double Gold at the SIP Awards and 91 points at the North American Bourbon & Whiskey Competition.

Nose: Fresh pineapple leads immediately, backed by layers of caramel and vanilla with a faint wisp of oak underneath. The overall impression is tropical and inviting, closer to ripe fruit than artificial candy, with some tasters noting a white gummi bear sweetness.

Palate: Sweet tropical pineapple balances soft bourbon notes of vanilla and gentle caramel. The mouthfeel is smooth and approachable, with juicy fruit flavours sitting comfortably over the bourbon’s natural warmth. It’s lighter in body than standard bourbon but retains recognisable oak and grain character.

Finish: Lightly sweet with lingering pineapple and subtle oak warmth. The finish is smooth and relatively short, leaving a pleasant tropical sweetness without heavy spirit heat.

Serve it simply over ice, mix with soda water for a quick highball, or amplify the tropical notes with pineapple juice for a refreshing long drink. It’s also well-suited to casual cocktails where you want bourbon character without overpowering other ingredients.

This is an ideal choice for home bartenders looking to add a versatile flavoured whiskey to their lineup, or as a thoughtful gift for someone who enjoys approachable, fruit-forward spirits with a bourbon backbone.
