The new Jim Beam Double Oak Jim Beam, from Suntory, the world's third-largest spirits producer, is something truly special. Like all Jim Beam Kentucky Straight Bourbons, it is traditionally aged in a charred American white oak barrel in the first stage, and then further matured in a second, also charred, oak barrel. This process creates an intense and complex bourbon.

Available in Germany since April of this year, Double Oak offers a first-class taste experience with a surprisingly intense and balanced flavor. The special double aging process allows the whiskey even more contact with the inside of the charred American oak barrel, resulting in exceptional depth of flavor.

Taste of Jim Beam Double Oak

The second aging process allows the product to develop an intensive contact with the wood, resulting in exceptional depth and a perfectly balanced flavor profile. With its delicate vanilla aroma, a hint of toasted wood, oak notes, and sweet hints of caramel and toffee, Jim Beam Double Oak acquires a unique and unmistakable taste with a balanced finish and a lingering oak note.

Fred Noe, seventh-generation Master Distiller of Jim Beam, explains it this way: „My family has made history and has been producing spirits for more than 220 years. Over the decades, we have always enjoyed pushing boundaries and being innovative, while remaining true to our family tradition. Jim Beam Double Oak is the latest example of this unique combination of traditional recipe and innovative production process.“

This premium bourbon can, of course, be enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in a cocktail (recipe below). Furthermore, the new Double Oak, like all products in the Jim Beam brand family, features a globally consistent packaging design. A new, distinctive bottle with unique contours, embossed glass, and engraving has been launched for Jim Beam Double Oak.
