Distillery Tasting Notes

Made by Beam Suntory, Inc. ~ James B. Beam Distilling Co. (Jim Beam)

The color of this batch is a rich chestnut that reminds me of the beautiful thoroughbred horses that run at the horse tracks in the spring in Kentucky. The nose boasts sweet hints of maple and vanilla, and the taste is rich with a long, warm finish.
