Jim Beam Signature

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 44.5%

Score: 92 Points

This limited edition release is the result of an experiment with 6 different grains, including brown rice and triticale in addition to corn, barley, wheat, and rye. Aged for 6 years, it has a nose with oak and peppery notes, vanilla, and a hint of honey. The taste is spicy with black pepper, a touch of toasted oak, and sawdust. The finish is dry with a lingering spiciness.
