UNCOVER OUR PREMIUM
BOURBON COLLECTION
Jim Beam premium bourbon is where deeper flavor, fuller character, and a more
distinctive pour come into focus. Crafted through extra aging, hand-selected
barrels, and unique barrel techniques, this collection shows a richer side of Jim
Beam.
A Kentucky Story, Told Through Premium Whiskey
Jim Beam has been at the heart of American bourbon since 1795, and our premium bourbons take the bourbon-making process to the next level. Crafted at our Clermont Distillery, Jim Beam Black is extra-aged for deeper notes of oak, vanilla, and caramel. Double Oak intensifies that richness with a second barreling for added depth and complexity. Devil’s Cut pulls bold character straight from the barrel wood itself, while Single Barrel delivers a one-of-a-kind bourbon, hand-selected for its distinct profile.
Each one of our American bourbon whiskeys embodies the craftsmanship and care that have defined Jim Beam for generations, delivering a richer, more robust flavor in every pour.
How to Taste Premium American
Whiskey Like a Pro
You don’t need a rulebook to enjoy premium bourbon — but a few simple moves can help you get more from the glass. Start with a small pour in a tasting glass or any glass with a narrower rim to help bring the aroma forward. Room temperature is a strong place to start, giving the bourbon a chance to show its full character before you decide whether to add ice or water.
Before you sip, take a moment to nose it gently. Look for notes like vanilla, caramel, oak, and spice, then take a small first sip and let it move across your palate before swallowing. A slower taste will reveal more of the depth, texture, and finish that premium bourbon whiskey is known for — especially when extra aging and barrel influence have had time to do their work.
And if neat isn’t your style, that’s fine too. Premium whiskey can hold its own in a simple, refreshing bourbon cocktail that still lets the spirit lead. A drink like Jim Beam Black, Bitters & Ginger is a good example: long, refreshing, and easy to enjoy, while still leaving room for the deeper character of the bourbon to come through. However you pour it, the idea is simple — slow down, pay attention, and get more out of every glass.
