Jim Beam Apple
Jim Beam bourbon with a fresh apple liqueur. Juicy and fresh-sweet, with bourbon's caramel notes underneath. Best enjoyed long and cold: with tonic, plenty of ice and a slice of apple.
An apple with a bourbon edge
Jim Beam Apple is a blend of Kentucky straight bourbon and apple liqueur. The liqueur provides a juicy, fresh and sweet apple flavor, while the bourbon brings the caramelized notes Jim Beam is known for. As a result, it has an alcohol content of 32.5%, lower than the White Label's 40%.
Where Honey is warm and rounded, Apple is fresh and light. That makes it the summer Jim Beam: enjoyable neat over ice, but especially in a highball. With tonic it is dry and refreshing; with soda or ginger ale, slightly sweeter. An easy introduction for anyone who finds bourbon a little strong.
