Jim Beam Winter Reserve Limited Edition Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Buy Jim Beam Winter Reserve and you get a seasonal straight bourbon built for cold nights. Its toasted barrel finish brings deeper vanilla and warm spice than the core range, which is the reason to order it for the cold months. The result is smooth and rounded, with sweet vanilla up front, cinnamon through the middle and a hint of clove on a warming finish. Unlike the flavoured Jim Beam bottles, nothing is added here: the character comes from the casks. Jim Beam Winter Reserve Bourbon is at its best neat or over a single large cube by the heater, and it makes a lovely hot toddy or a spiced Old Fashioned. It is released for the cooler months and tends not to hang around, so it suits anyone who likes to stock up for the season. Order a bottle, use crypto for the checkout discount, and sign for the tracked delivery.

Jim Beam Winter Reserve Bourbon Tasting Notes Before You Buy

The nose is vanilla bean and cinnamon sugar with a trace of toasted oak. On the palate the texture is smooth and slightly richer than White Label, with vanilla custard, baking spice and a little dried orange. Clove appears on the finish along with warming oak, lingering longer than the everyday bottles. Jim Beam Winter Reserve Bourbon tastes like the season it is named for.

Jim Beam Winter Edition Compared With Other Special Releases in Stock

The Jim Beam Winter Edition is the cold weather twin of the Jim Beam Sunshine Blend, which is lighter and floral for summer. For a festive look with the classic recipe, the Jim Beam Holiday Limited Edition is the pick. If you want older stock, the Jim Beam 8 Year Old Pin Bottle is our collectors choice.

How to Serve Jim Beam Winter Bourbon Once It Is Delivered

Neat in a tumbler is the best way to taste the toasted barrel notes. For a hot toddy, add a measure to hot water with honey, lemon and a cinnamon stick. A winter Old Fashioned with a dash of aromatic bitters and an orange twist brings out the spice. It also adds depth to mulled cider on a chilly night.

What to Order With Jim Beam Winter Reserve

Cinnamon sticks, whole cloves and lemons are all you need for toddies. A wedge of aged cheddar, gingerbread or a slice of pecan pie picks up the spice beautifully. For a side by side, add a Jim Beam White Label miniature to taste what the toasted barrel finish adds.
