108 proof 2 years Bourbon James B. Beam Distilling Company Claremont, KY Jim Beam mash bill
Nose

Honey roasted corn nut character, oily and viscous with edginess from lower distillation proof, more direct grain and yeast strain flavors.

Palate

Buttery cinnamon spice on top of tongue, creamed honey with cinnamon character, oily texture with mingling of grain and early barrel interaction.

Finish

Pleasant spice profile with butterscotch and oak notes developing from the young barrels.

Above average
A distinctive young whiskey that showcases the fruit of the distiller's work by highlighting grain and yeast character at barrel entry proof, delivering surprising complexity for its two-year age.
