There's an old axiom that claims "Two heads are better than one". Can that theory be transferred to whiskey barrels? Jim Beam's Double Oak might answer that question. You see, they initially mature this bourbon in freshly charred American oak barrels, and then move the whiskey over to a fresh set of freshly charred American oak barrels for the second part of its maturation!
A worthy replacement for the now discontinued Jim Beam Black.
Try in a Peach Smash:
Add the ingredients above to a shaker with cubed ice and shake hard for 4 seconds. Strain over crushed ice in a rocks glass and garnish with a sprig of mint and a lemon wedge.
Full-bodied vanilla, old oak, milk chocolate and a kick of cardamom.
Subtly peppery/oak-y at first. Soon enough, waves and waves of vanilla ice cream bring balance to the palate. A few touches of fruity malt.
Charred oak toastiness lingers long on the finish.

This is an absolutely terrible bourbon. It has a very unpleasant taste. I don't understand how it has received such favorable reviews. For the same amount of money, you are much better off purchasing Eagle Rare, Buffalo Trace, McKenna 10 year, or any of the Four Roses bottles.
Tried this for the first time today. Usually I stick to single malts but have been known to try a bourbon or two. This one, I think, is very good indeed. There's plenty of vanilla and lots of spiciness which lasts a long time. Better than the white label and JD in my opinion, but I'm no bourbon expert.
Spot on for the price. After reading your tasting notes I tried another taste and found the vanilla you described.
It may not be the worlds best bourbon, but at this price it might well be the best value.
Crisp charcoal lyrics with a very smooth finish :)
