Jim Beam White Label Tasting note

By Miguel at 2012 May,07 in Tasting , Jim Beam

“Nice bourbon. Nothing spectacular but does its job really well.”

Jim Beam Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Jim Beam bourbon has been aged to perfection in new, charred oak barrels and bottled at a full 86 proof.

This Kentucky straight bourbon is a producing a whiskey of truly distinctive character, one that is smoother and more flavorful than other premium whiskies.

Without being great, I have to agree that it does its job really well. If you like this whiskey, you should try Elijah Craig 12 years old whiskey

This dram has a amber-like color.

Nose (87): more than average. corn, honey, vanilla, wood, spices.

Palate (86): smooth, powerful. corn, honey, spices, pepper, wood, vanilla. Very powerful palate. Doesn't looks like 40% at all.

Finish (84): average. corn, spices, honey, wood.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Jim Beam Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey with 86 points over 100.
