Jim Beam Apple Liqueur Infused With Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey 70 cl 32.5%

Bourbon as the base, apple as the point — a lighter, sweeter take on Jim Beam for anyone not drinking it neat.

Expert description

Jim Beam Apple is a bourbon-based liqueur, where Jim Beam Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey is infused with natural apple flavour. Bottled at 32.5%. The Jim Beam distillery in Clermont, Kentucky, dates back to 1795, when Jacob Beam sold his first barrel of bourbon under the name "Old Jake Beam". The family has made bourbon in Kentucky for over 200 years and seven generations, and the brand took its current name in 1943 in honour of James Beauregard "Jim" Beam, who rebuilt the distillery in 120 days after Prohibition ended.

It's meant to be enjoyed on the rocks or in cocktails rather than neat like a regular bourbon.
