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.”

Las Vegas is one of the mixology capitals of the world, so it only made sense that a distillery would open in nearby Henderson, Nevada. Opened in 2024, the Las Vegas Distillery is a distillery and tasting room that crafts vodka, rum, and now a single-barrel blue corn bourbon.

Even if you have the most basic concept of whiskey, you know that you can’t simply open a distillery and distill and immediately sell bourbon. That unaged spirit would be white whiskey or moonshine unless you source it from somewhere else. What you need to make great bourbon is time.
