Little Book Infinite Edition II

Description

Tasting Notes and Characteristics:

This Little Book Infinite Edition II opens with a bold, warm profile—rich caramel and dark chocolate notes framed by spice and a silky, velvety feel, making it feel celebratory yet approachable for a special occasion. ABV 0.635 (63.5%), it is produced as a carefully layered blend of aged whiskeys crafted in the United States, using small-batch methods and oak maturation to build depth.

On the palate, expect roasted fruit, vanilla, and a touch of dark cocoa with a sturdy, warming finish and well-integrated spice. It partners nicely with duck, enhancing savory fat with its sweetness, and with cheese—think a creamy brie or aged cheddar—where the whiskey’s toasty notes lift and balance the dairy richness.

Producer Information: Jim Beam

Jim Beam is based in Clermont, Kentucky, near Louisville, where the Beam family has operated a distillery since the late 18th century. The brand traces its origins to Jacob Beam and expanded through the 19th and 20th centuries with a commitment to the traditional sour mash bourbon process, aging spirit in new charred oak barrels and refining production with a focus on consistency and accessibility for a wide audience. The production approach emphasizes firm lineage, steady, scalable practices, and keeping classic bourbon profiles that emphasize vanilla, caramel, and oak notes, while maintaining a practical, industry-standard distillation and aging program.

Beyond its flagship bottle, the Jim Beam portfolio includes a range of bourbon expressions such as Jim Beam White Label, Black, Devil’s Cut, and Double Oak, among others that explore varying proof levels and aging periods. The broader Beam Suntory family also encompasses other well-known whiskey brands like Maker’s Mark, Knob Creek, Basil Hayden’s, and Booker’s, along with a diverse array of spirits and international offerings such as Canadian Club, Sauza tequila, Hornitos, and other global labels, reflecting a broad multi-country lineup that spans whiskey, tequila, and related categories.
