Jim Beam - Black Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
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.
What do you do when awarded the International Wine & Spirits Competition’s 2016 Bourbon Trophy? You don’t change a thing. That’s why Jim Beam Black is, and always will be, extra-aged to taste and bottled only when it’s just right. The result is a full-bodied bourbon with an extra level of elegance and refinement that’s meant to be sipped and savored. And of course, just like its younger brother, our original Jim Beam®, it’s best when shared with others.
Something magical happens to the whiskey in its seventh year in cask. We call it the sweet spot, where an easy smoothness meets notes of caramel, vanilla, and warm oak, and the liquid turns a rich gold. This is the mellow whiskey you’ll find in the new Jim Beam Black. Enjoy Jim Beam Black neat, on the rocks, or in a Jim Beam Black, Bitters, and Ginger.
