Warm up your holidays with Jim Beam's limited-edition Winter Reserve
By Matt Sidney
The holiday season is officially around the corner, and Jim Beam just unwrapped something special to spice up your winter nights! Say hello to Jim Beam Winter Reserve, a limited-edition bourbon that’s all about spreading warmth, joy, and a little extra kick.
With winter vibes and cozy nights in mind, Jim Beam’s latest creation promises to be the perfect partner for your holiday gatherings or even your quiet nights by the fire.
Winter Reserve isn’t just another bottle to toss in the liquor cabinet. Aged for six years in toasted barrels, this bourbon brings rich flavors like vanilla, cinnamon, and a subtle hint of clove to the table. The result? A smooth, toasty drink that’ll make you feel like you’re sipping a bit of the holiday spirit itself.
Whether you’re sharing it with friends and family, using it to mix up festive cocktails, or gifting it to the bourbon lover in your life, Jim Beam Winter Reserve has you covered.
A bourbon crafted for holiday magic
Jim Beam's seventh-generation Master Distiller, Fred Noe, is hyped about this seasonal release.
He explained, "With Winter Reserve, we wanted to create a special bourbon that embodies the warmth of the holidays and the bold flavors that pair well with cold weather. We are excited to share it with our community and hope its holiday-inspired flavors bring people together to celebrate the joy of the season."
And let’s be honest, nothing says “holiday spirit” like a glass of smooth bourbon that tastes like it was made for cozying up next to a crackling fire.
So, what exactly can you expect from Jim Beam’s Winter Reserve? Well, this isn’t just your typical bourbon. It’s got layers of flavor, and the toasty barrel finish really cranks up the richness. Think subtle hints of vanilla, a cinnamon spice that’s just right, and a touch of clove. The combination is warm, inviting, and perfect for sipping on a chilly night.
You could easily see yourself whipping this into a holiday cocktail, but it’s just as good straight up, too.
But the best part? It won’t drain your holiday budget. At a suggested retail price of just $24.99, it’s an affordable way to bring a little extra cheer to your winter festivities. And with an ABV of 43% (or 86 proof for the bourbon aficionados out there), it strikes the perfect balance between being smooth and still having that satisfying kick bourbon lovers crave.
Jim Beam Winter Reserve is available in a 750ml bottle, but here’s the catch—it’s only around for a limited time. So, if you’re thinking about grabbing a bottle for yourself (or as a gift), you might want to act fast. You can find it at some of your favorite retailers, like ReserveBar, Total Wine, and Binny's, or online at JimBeam.com.
The holidays are busy enough, so why not make your life a little easier and add some bourbon magic to your celebrations?
Whether you’re toasting with friends, impressing your cocktail-loving family, or just enjoying a quiet evening by the fire, Jim Beam Winter Reserve has all the holiday vibes you need. As Fred Noe said, it’s designed to "bring people together to celebrate the joy of the season," and honestly, what better way to do that than with a glass of bourbon that practically feels like a holiday hug?
So, if you're ready to unwrap the true spirit of the season (pun absolutely intended), grab a bottle of Jim Beam Winter Reserve before it's gone. Let’s face it, there’s no better way to celebrate the holidays than with a glass of something special in hand. Cheers to the season of warmth, joy, and, of course, bourbon!
