    Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey 220 Years of Experience Goes Into Every Bottle of Jim Beam Bourbon

    American Whiskey Bourbon Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey 220 years of experience goes into every bottle of Jim Beam Bourbon. An aging process of four years in new charred oak barrels gives Jim Beam its elegant, refined and smooth character. With a slightly spicy, oaky vanilla aroma, this medium-bodied bourbon brings mellow hints of caramel, vanilla, grain and oak flavor with a lightly sweet, toasted oak finish. Sip it neat, on the rocks or mix it up in any number of bourbon- or whiskey- centered cocktails like a Spring Breeze or Berry Julep. Jim Beam's extra aging creates an elegant, smooth and refined whiskey that pleases with every sip. After seven generations and 30 family members of master distillers, the Jim Beam family tradition continues today. In 2005, Frederick Booker Noe III, the great-grandson of Jim Beam, filled the 10 millionth barrel of Jim Beam, keeping the tradition of Jacob Beam alive for the next generation of bourbon drinkers.

    ISSUE CONTENTS IN CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER UP-TO -DATE THROUGH VOL 20 NO 5 – SEPTEMBER , 2021 Copyright © 1993-2021, Charles Kendrick Cowdery, All Rights Reserved WHAT THIS IS The name pretty much explains it. The Bourbon Country Reader Issue Contents in Chronological Order is a list of all the contents of every issue, in chronological order, from the beginning to the most recent issue. It lists the volume and issue number of each issue, the publication date, the headlines of all the stories in that issue, and where necessary there is a short description of what the story is about (when it isn't obvious from the headline). All product reviews are included too. All back issues of The Bourbon Country Reader are available as bound volumes except Volume One (see explanation, below). Each bound volume contains six issues. Volumes become available in bound form as soon as that volume is completed, i.e., after issue number six of that volume has been published. You may order bound volumes of back issues at bourbonstraight.com. WHY VOLUME ONE IS NOT AVAILABLE When we started The Reader in 1993, it was an experiment. We had no idea if anyone would be interested. The design was very crude. (Considering how simple it still is, that's saying something.) After the first six issues, we had worked out the kinks and decided to keep going. We decided to bury the experimental first volume, for reasons both aesthetic and technical. In light of that decision, we resolved to republish in future issues all significant stories from those first six issues, which we did, so you're really not missing anything by not having Volume One.
