How to drink it

At 54% this is bottled well above standard strength, so start it neat and add water a few drops at a time, it opens up considerably and the heat drops away fast. The sweetness makes it a natural in a highball with dry ginger ale or cola, and it holds its own in an Old Fashioned. Serve at room temperature in a tulip or copita glass if you want to get everything out of the nose.

Why is there no age statement on this bottle?

Is Jim Beam a bourbon or a whiskey?

Both. Jim Beam is a Kentucky straight bourbon, and all bourbon is whiskey. To be sold as bourbon it must be made from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred American oak, Jim Beam has met that standard since the Beam family started distilling in 1795.
