Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey in a Nutshell

As the world's #1 bourbon, Jim Beam Original is aged for four years, twice as long as legally required, in new charred American white oak barrels. This Kentucky straight bourbon, crafted with limestone-filtered water and a family yeast strain used since Prohibition's end, delivers those classic caramel, vanilla, and oak notes.
