Jim Beam Winter Reserve, a six-year-old prepared for winter
@jimbeam has announced the release of a new limited edition version: Jim Beam Winter Reserve. This bourbon aged in toasted oak barrels for six years arrives just in time for the 2024 holiday season, and becomes the distillery's first big novelty for the coldest months of the year.
He Jim Beam Winter Reserve It has been aged for six years, finished in two toasted barrels, giving the bourbon a unique flavor profile. This new expression stands out for offering a blend of soft flavors with notes of sweet vanilla, cinnamon spice and a touch of clove, culminating in a warm finish that reflects the essence of winter.
With an alcohol content of 86 proof (43% ABV), Jim Beam Winter Reserve It offers a rich and satisfying sip, ideal both for consumption alone and for preparing classic cocktails, such as the Old Fashioned. This new expression from Jim Beam is a step up from last year's limited edition bourbon, the Holiday Edition of four years of sour mash, which was very well received by consumers.
According to Jim Beam's seventh-generation master distiller, Fred Noe, "Jim Beam Winter Reserve seeks to capture the warmth of the holidays and the intense flavors that combine perfectly with the cold weather. At Jim Beam we are always looking to innovate while staying true to our heritage, and this limited edition is an example of that."
He Jim Beam Winter Reserve, with its slightly higher proof than the brand's flagship bourbon, is a versatile component for winter cocktails, but can also be enjoyed perfectly neat or on the rocks, making the most of its flavor profile. This bourbon is only available at select retailers in the United States for a suggested retail price of $24.99 at specialty retailers and is also available on the official Jim Beam website.
This launch reaffirms Jim Beam's commitment to innovation and offering its consumers unique expressions that capture the essence of each season, in this case, the warmth and depth of winter flavors.
