Jim Beam® Double Oak is first aged in charred American white oak barrels, then we pour it into another freshly charred barrel to mature for a second time. Further, we reserve the right to modify, change, discontinue the Service, add or remove features, update the Service, change its appearance, temporarily and permanently, at any time, in whole or any part thereof. Nevertheless, it still has well over half the grains coming from corn and so meets the legal requirements there. The extended maturation period in these fresh charred barrels imparts a heightened spiced oakiness and caramel sweetness to the liquid. I am not saying this is what they do, they could do 1+3 or 3+1 or any other permutation (not likely they’d waste new barrels on superficial aging periods).Serving it over ice transforms the flavor profile, making it a suitable choice for crafting a flavorful Old Fashioned cocktail. You have probably seen the adverts for this featuring Mila Kunis which if you are a bloke and into women may have influenced your opinion on this already. One good thing that did happen to the Beam family during this time is Jim’s daughter, Margaret, married Frederick Booker Noe.

It’s a lumber slugger for sure, but don’t expect it to taste like the syrupy distilled wood you cooked up in middle school science lab. The extra time-in-oak makes it deeper, more complex and gives it a stronger oak backbone that gets it closer to some of their small batch releases. The coconut sweetness and the mellowness are excellent matches with the American white Oak, beautifully counterbalancing some of the dryness, some of the astringency and the charred woodiness from the Double Oak. Jeremiah “Jere” Beam helped his father to run the family business until he officially took the reins in 1946.
