Jim Beam Devil's Cut Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Owner:Kotobuki Realty Co., Ltd. (Japan)
OriginUSA
Manufactured:USA

Jim Beam Devil's Cut is a premium Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey known for its deep, intense flavor profile. The name refers to the 'devil's cut'—the liquid that remains trapped inside the wood of the charred oak barrels after the whiskey is emptied. Jim Beam uses a proprietary process to extract this spirit from the barrel walls and then blends it with extra-aged bourbon to create a bold, woody character with notes of vanilla and oak.

The brand has a storied history dating back to 1795 when Jacob Beam sold his first barrel of corn whiskey. Seven generations of the Beam family have since been involved in the distilling process. While it remains a quintessentially American product deeply rooted in Kentucky heritage and manufacturing, the brand's ownership transitioned to a Japanese-led global entity in 2014, forming one of the largest premium spirits companies in the world.
