The holidays are coming up quickly. If you’re anything like us, you’ll drink your fair share of whisky during all the seasonal parties and get-togethers. Jim Beam knows all about that. And while you can’t go wrong with the brand’s iconic White Label or one of its other expressions, this year, Jim Beam is releasing a whiskey explicitly created to be enjoyed during the holiday season.

It’s called Jim Beam Winter Reserve, a limited-edition seasonal whiskey. Be sure to find a home on holiday tables from coast to coast. This Kentucky straight bourbon is matured for six years in charred oak before being finished in toasted barrels. The result is a complex, sippable whiskey with notes of cinnamon candy, vanilla beans, toffee, and wintry spices.

“At Jim Beam, we’re always looking for ways to innovate while staying true to our deeply rooted heritage,” Fred Noe, Jim Beam’s seventh-generation Master Distiller, said in a press release. “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.”

Taiwan's Kavalan Distillery is one of the world's most highly regarded whisky distilleries. While it has a nice range of flagship expressions and limited-release whiskies, it has never had an age-statement whisky. That all changes with the launch of its newest single malt whisky.

This limited-edition expression is Kavalan Distillery's first-ever expression released with an age statement. This refined, complex whisky was matured for fifteen years in a combination of ex-Bourbon, Oloroso Sherry, Ruby Port, and Puncheon. The new release from its 'Time Exploration' series pays tribute to Kavalan's history and the moment in 2006 when the Taiwanese whisky's first new-make spirit was distilled.

Have you ever had a Pickleback? If not, you’re really missing out on a boozy, tangy treat. In the simplest terms, a Pickleback is a shot of liquor (usually a bourbon, rye, or other whiskey) directly followed by a shot of pickle juice or brine. The tangy, salty, spicy pickle juice perfectly offsets the warmth of the alcohol.

It’s a surprisingly great combination. And while you can dump out some juice from your favorite Kosher dills or sweet gherkins, wouldn’t you buy a bottle made specifically for a Pickleback instead?
