Eight years and 86 proof, Jim Beam Black Label, is made from the original Beam recipe. The perfect counterpart of age and proof leads to an intensity of flavor and smoothness untouched by other bourbons.
Premium bourbon with a more flavorful character made to be sipped and savored. Our premium 86-proof, extra-aged bourbon ages years longer in white oak barrels than original Jim Beam. It's those extra years of aging that give Jim Beam Black its smooth, full-bodied flavor.
Tasting Notes:
Pure amber color. Aromas of peanut brittle, honey, hay and delicate baking spices follow through on a round, smooth, vibrant entry to a dryish medium-full body with rich toffee, dried fruit and grain notes. Finishes with a long, warming wet stone, caramelized nut, and spice fade. Delicious, balanced, and a great value. Exceptional.
