Nose: Intense aromas of rich brown sugar, caramel, and vanilla greet the senses, followed by robust charred oak, nutmeg, and a light rye spice
Palate: A full-bodied and oily mouthfeel brings a powerful rush of toffee, baking spices, cinnamon, and caramel cream, all framed by noticeable woody, earthy tannins
Finish: The 125-proof heat provides a long, warming finish, leaving behind a satisfying mix of toasted oak, baking spice, and a slightly dry rye tingle.

Jim Beam Black
Our premium, 86-proof bourbon whiskey spends years longer being aged in our American White Oak barrels than our original Jim Beam. It's those extra years of aging that give Jim Beam Black its full-bodied flavor with notes of smooth caramel and warm oak.

Nose: The nose is quite complex and well-balanced. There are notes of crème anglaise and butterscotch, mixed dried peels and nuts, a hint of aniseed and lovely cereal sweetness.
Palate: The palate is full and thick with fruit. There are notes of vanilla fudge and honey, smooth caramel, plenty of rye and warm oak.
Finish: The finish is of good length with a touch of toasty oak spice.
