Jim Beam Sunshine Blend Bourbon Whiskey

Sunshine Blend is Jim Beam's summer release — the white label blended with a new bourbon distilled from brown rice, the first rice bourbon from a major Kentucky house, at 80 proof. Seven generations of Beams have run the Clermont distillery since 1795, and Sunshine Blend is one of Fred and Freddie Noe's experiments in a bottle: standard Jim Beam Kentucky straight bourbon — corn, rye, malted barley, four years in new oak — married with a bourbon whose grain bill swaps in brown rice, which ferments lighter and fruitier than corn, and bottled at 80 proof as a limited special release. Expect a lighter, more floral nose than white label — honeysuckle, green apple, and vanilla over the Beam peanut — a soft, mild, faintly sweet palate with a rice-wine delicacy, and a short, clean finish. Honest note: this is a cocktail bourbon by design — built for the highball, the lemonade, and the porch — and a curiosity for the drinker who wants to taste what rice does to bourbon without buying a craft-distillery experiment; not a sipper, and not meant to be. In a highball, a bourbon lemonade, or with ginger ale. Sunshine Blend, the rice bourbon.
