What to expect

Beam's uncut, unfiltered small-batch bourbon, released in named batches roughly six to eight years old at cask strength, so proof changes from batch to batch. Expect a big, nutty, oak-heavy bourbon with dark caramel and vanilla and considerable heat.

Expected notes: Peanut, Caramel, Vanilla, Charred oak, Brown sugar, Ethanol heat.
