Jim Beam Single Barrel Review
While this bottle is definitely not the most recognizable in Jim Beam’s lineup, it’s among the best bourbons the brand has to offer and overdelivers on its relatively affordable price tag. Inviting rye spice notes jump out on nose and palate, while subtler hints of fruit, vanilla, and caramel contribute further layers and richness. At 47.5 percent ABV, it shines in cocktails, poured over ice, or sipped neat.
