Jim Beam Black 7-Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is an extra-aged expression from the iconic Jim Beam distillery in Clermont, Kentucky. Patiently rested in charred white oak barrels for a full seven years, the bourbon develops a deep, rich gold color and a notably smooth, full-bodied character that sets it apart from the standard Jim Beam expression. Bottled at 45% ABV (90 proof), this 1.75-liter handle offers exceptional value for a bourbon with a verified age statement.

On the nose, Jim Beam Black opens with charred oak, brown sugar, almond butter, lightly roasted corn, and a mellow cinnamon-vanilla essence. The palate is full-bodied with rich caramel, hints of brown butter, warm baking spice, and a pleasantly nutty quality. The finish is surprisingly lengthy, with returning almond butter, oak, tobacco, and cracked pepper notes that linger satisfyingly. This expression blends the approachability of classic Jim Beam with a depth of flavor closer to premium small-batch bourbons in the Jim Beam family.

Enjoy Jim Beam Black neat, on the rocks, or in classic cocktails such as an Old Fashioned, Whiskey Sour, or Kentucky Mule. The 1.75-liter format makes it an excellent choice for home bars and entertaining.
