Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Jim Beam Signature Craft 12

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 43%

Score: 89 Points

This Bourbon is scheduled for release in August of 2013, and marks the start of a new series of small-batch Bourbons under the Jim Beam label. The nose has notes of oak campfire smoke, honey, mild vanilla, cocoa, and a hint of molasses. The taste is chewy and mouth-filling with a good chili powder spiciness, tangy barbecue sauce with a hint of vinegar, and sweet touches of honey and brown sugar at the end. The sweetness on the finish is balanced with a nice oaky, dusty, and dry touch on top with just a hint of spice. (February, 2013)
