Description
Since 1795 when Jacob Beam started to sell corn-whiskey - a recipe passed down from his German father - seven generations of the Beam family have been involved in the creation of the whiskey that is known as Jim Beam. Named for James B. Beam, who popularised the business after prohibition and rebuilt the Clermont distillery in only 120 days, Jim Beam has been the world's top-selling bourbon ever since. [cite: Scotch Whisky Auctions, 14, 17, 22, 26, 29] Jim Beam Single Barrel is a premium Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, with each bottle drawn from a hand-selected single barrel, representing less than one percent of all maturing Jim Beam barrels. This 95 proof (47.5% ABV) expression offers a unique profile, individually numbered to reflect its specific barrel of origin. It is aged in new charred American white oak barrels, delivering a full-bodied and balanced character.
