Straight Bourbon Whiskey Double Oaked is dark auburn to light mahogany in color. This whiskey produces a thick viscous line on the side of the glass. Mash Bill: 70% Corn, 20% Rye, 10% Malted BarleyĬolor & Viscosity: David E. Pennsylvania Straight Bourbon Whiskey Double Oaked Question, though…… How long has the extra aged replaced the 8-year? Just trying to figure how long this beauty was sitting there waiting for a date.DSR – PA – 002: David E. I really liooked forward to cracking it open, and I was not disappointed. This is just perfect before the step up to Booker’s, if you are a Beam fan, IMO. A BIG step up from white label, and makes extra aged (6yr?) wish it tasted this good.ĭark, woody rich, almost flan-like taste with a nice Beam spice but so smooth on the finish, it makes you want more. Good enough that when you would offer someone Jim Beam and they may turn their nose to it, THIS is the stuff you would like to present them. The extra 4 years takes this to another level. The extra aged has nothing on this stuff. $20 out the door, no tax! I jumped at it as the guy was dusting it off. I happened to find a bottle on a dusty shelf at a liquor store less than 2 miles from my house. I honestly have been looking for this juice since I read your review. Watery caramel slowly fades to oak and vanilla. Smooth and drinkable, it’s very approachable. Citrus, dark fruit preserves and a bit more of that corn and yeast from the nose round out the palate. Hints of bruleed pastry and a bit of corn and yeast.Ĭaramel and oak followed by vanilla and a robust Jim Beam spice. Some wood arrives, more than in the white, and it comes across less medicinal and more earthy. Traditional bourbon nose of caramel, vanilla and spice.
It belongs in any environment where you care less about having great bourbon in your glass and more about not having shitty bourbon in your glass. A have-a-glass-or-two-while-grilling-and-watching-the-fights kind of bourbon.
It’s a take-it-to-a-gathering-of-people-for-sipping-shooting-and-making-cocktails kind of bourbon. Overall Jim Beam Black is just a really good “everyday” bourbon, but it’s not a sit-at-home-and-slowly-savor-it kind of bourbon. Black is where Jim Beam, starts getting that “it” factor. I don’t want to horde it nor do I feel like I need to be really paying attention to fully appreciate it, but I could if I wanted to. It has a feeling to it that makes me want to share it and drink it with my friends. The thing I like most about Jim Beam Black is that it’s approachable and appreciable in any situation. I don’t quite love it like I do Booker’s or Knob Creek, but I definitely like it and for about $20 it’s one hell of a good deal. The Black is aged for twice as long as the Jim Beam White Label and, for me, is where Jim Beam starts getting good.
