Jim Beam Peach is a flavored bourbon expression that pairs Jim Beam's Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey with rich, juicy peach liqueur. Bottled at 65 proof, it leans sweeter and softer than standard Jim Beam, with the brand's signature charred oak and vanilla framework folded into bright, ripe peach character. Built for warm weather sipping, peach lemonades, peach iced teas, and bourbon cobbler style drinks. The reverse approach of starting with peach liqueur and folding bourbon in gives this expression a more fruit forward identity than typical flavored bourbons that simply add flavor to the base spirit.
