Jim Beam Black
Our premium, 86-proof bourbon whiskey spends years longer being aged in our American White Oak barrels than our original Jim Beam. It's those extra years of aging that give Jim Beam Black its full-bodied flavor with notes of smooth caramel and warm oak.

Part of the  Beam Suntory family of brands.
Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose is quite complex and well-balanced. There are notes of crème anglaise and butterscotch, mixed dried peels and nuts, a hint of aniseed and lovely cereal sweetness.
Palate: The palate is full and thick with fruit. There are notes of vanilla fudge and honey, smooth caramel, plenty of rye and warm oak.
Finish: The finish is of good length with a touch of toasty oak spice.
Maker's Mark FAE-01 (2021 Limited Release)
Our third limited release from the Maker's Mark Wood Finishing Series joins our previous years' expressions in honoring our signature bourbon- this time, amplifying the naturally present dried fruit and woody richness in a distinctively Maker's way. We like to say it tastes exactly how our barrel warehouse smells, with rich figgy notes complemented by tobacco undertones and a pleasantly dank woodiness.
