This is the result of taking 90 proof Jim Beam Bourbon and extracting spirit absorbed into the wood of the barrels itself and blending them together. The result is a punchy oak-fest of a Bourbon, surely the drink of the devil himself?
Immensely woody, fresh cut oak and a whole heap of vanilla and wood spice.
The American oak vanilla remains powerful with a rich woodiness joining it.
Yep still oaky, the finish is reasonably long with a pinch of spice scattered on top of that persistent vanilla flavour.
Well this is definitely a woody drink, and it is an interesting experiment in what can be achieved through wood extraction.
Always been a Jack Daniels kind of guy.Not any more love the woody taste with that little sweetness of Devils cut.
So disappointed with this.I have a friend that makes a better drop in his garden shed.
Jim Beam Devil's Cut is a nice dram and one of the few American whiskeys I can appreciate. The nose is sweet, you have to really sniff it up. Then you'll find a leading role for the vanilla, which is pretty nice (made me think of 'the naked grouse) and the bourbon seals the deal. A distinctive Jim Beam nose. On to the palate, the taste is much more ferocious than the nose would suggest. Strong sensations of the ongoing vanilla (you would expect vanilla to be smooth and soft, but no...), oak and more bourbon. Yes, this is devilish. The finish gets easier along the way. The peak is obviously in the middle. Nice work, Jim! (RB)

Read Review so I decided to try it, it tastes horrible! Not at all smooth, what a waste of money.
