Jim Beam Rye Whiskey, 70 cl

This rye whiskey offering from Jim Beam is amazing value. At such a modest price you wouldn't usually find a Jim Murray favourite and an award winner but today is your lucky day! Starting off with caramel and vanillas then followed by warm spices Jim Beam Rye excels in an old fashioned. The Beam family was actually of German decent originally known as Bohm. The name Jim Beam also stems from James Beam who managed the business before and after Prohibition thus keeping alive his family's legacy. I also think the name is a vast improvement on the distillery's original title of Old Tub! A little bit of sweet, a lotta bit of spice!
