Strong burn, can only handle this when mixed.

Paul, Feb 15, 2020

Smooth and enjoyable.

Phenomenal bourbon. Well worth the hype.

This is definitely a beam product. Great mouth feel. Has that smooth semi sweet, vanilla and caramel start. Love the oaky middle and that beautiful semi spicey rye finish. All the while having a nice higher abv that really gives you the feel of what bourbon should taste like. I'm a huge Booker's fan. This is a nice calmer, lower abv in that line.

This one is pretty good overall, nice spice on the aroma with some sweet as well. The taste is well rounded, I get some bourbon sweetness along with some vanilla and wood. Much more drinkable than the Booker's. A splash of water in the Baker's brings things down a bit more - not sure if it's needed, you do get some more spice with a splash of water. Overall, darn tasty

Easy sipper, i got noticeable chocolate and caramel notes on the front with a smooth finish. Very surprising that it does not hit harder given the proof.

Definitely knob's big brother. I was suprised by how smooth it was given the proof, very complex with lingering finish.

Definitely a full-bodied bourbon. It has a nicely balanced taste of butterscotch and caramel, leather, and orange. This one packs a punch because of the proof but it’s full of flavor and mouthfeel.

Very sweet and great as an aperitif.

James, Jun 15, 2019

A little too much heat due to 107 proof but I love the flavor. Slightly sweet finish.

Nice smell with sweeter fruity smell. Taste was spicier to me. Would be a great cigar bourbon.

Lucas, Apr 20, 2019

Sweet and then spicy with a noticeably high proof

Very smooth. In the spectrum of Jim Beam products I think this is a bit of an afterthought, and not priced well, although it is a very nice bourbon. I personally prefer barrel strength Knob Creek which is 120 vs 107 proof and about $15 less per bottle. Other than that, Booker's (also barrel proof) is about $20 more than this per bottle and even smoother. So this kind of gets to be the orphan bottle that either needs to drop in price to be competitive, or put on its big boy pants and compete with Little Book or Booker's at a slightly lower price point than these two.

This is probably my favorite offering to date coming out of the Jim Beam distillery. The higher abv doesn't really cause as much of a burn as I thought it might. Very smooth and a nice, complex flavor profile.

Steven, Mar 4, 2019

Incredibly smooth!

Scott, Dec 31, 2018

First thing I taste is caramel sweetness and spice even though this is 53% it doesn't have a long burn I really like this and will definitely pick up another bottle

Luke, Dec 27, 2018

Nose: alcohol and corn sweetness, leather Taste: sweet, strong burn and flavor, leather and vanilla, some caramel, some nuttiness, some banana, slight oak

Robert, Oct 24, 2018

The sweet notes in this thin bourbon come out quite apparently, and the high proof make a little go a long way.

Brian, Oct 22, 2018

Sweet and complex. Better over ice.

Chris, Oct 9, 2018

This is a decent bourbon but a really strong burn which isn’t my favorite. I used a cube with this one which I don’t usually do and that really helped the taste
