Jim Beam Distiller's Masterpiece 18-year, 1st Edition with box

Jim Beam Distiller’s Masterpiece 18 Year Cognac Finish (1st edition), a pioneering 1999 release, marked a historic shift as one of the first super premium bourbons with a major brand's cask finish. A Booker Noe and Alain Royer collaboration, this highly exclusive gem is presented in a French crystal decanter adorned with oak leaves. The rich and complex profile showcases butterscotch, caramel, cherry, fig, and dark fruits on the nose, transitioning to a palate of dark fruits, sweets, vanilla, baking spice, and citrus. Its long, sweet finish layers dark sweets, dark fruit, and subtle wood hints—a true masterpiece of whisky history.
