Launching in early April 2017 the release follows a larger global upgrade of the entire Jim Beam Bourbon portfolio, which has been visible on-shelf since 2016, and solidifies the brand\u2019s position as the World\u2019s No.1 Bourbon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONTEMPORARY MEETS HERITAGE<\/strong><br \/>\nPaying homage to the rich heritage of Jim Beam, dating back to 1795, the bottle design showcases the quality and craftsmanship that goes into the renowned character of Jim Beam Black, through luxurious design cues.<\/p>\n<p>The global unification and premium look of the new packaging contemporises the Jim Beam brand while celebrating the company\u2019s renowned heritage. Packaging upgrades include new premium bottle structures; refreshed labels with higher quality paper, real gold foil and matte finishes; unique bottle closures for the premium line; and label harmonization across the flavored product range.<\/p>\n<p>The Jim Beam Black bottle now has a bolder structure with more cleanly designed labels featuring premium finishes and a refined \u201crosette\u201d logo. The bolder, more rectangular bottle structure features premium label enhancements including extra fine detailing, crafted borders, foil finishes, refined embossing and a paper matte stock. The premium bottles also include matte finished shrink sleeves along the closure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WORLD ACCLAIMED BOURBON<\/strong><br \/>\nMichael Cockram, Global Marketing Director GTR at Beam Suntory says: \u201cJim Beam Black is an outstanding award-winning whiskey of unparalleled character and the new global packaging redesign reflects this. As the final expression in the portfolio to be released with this global upgrade, we look forward to continuing to make history within the bourbon category with Jim Beam.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Made to be sipped on the rocks or neat, or enjoyed in a cocktail, Jim Beam Black is aged in American white oak barrels for years longer than original Jim Beam Bourbon. It is these extra years of aging that gives Jim Beam Black its full-bodied flavour and smooth caramel and warm oak notes.<\/p>\n<p>Jim Beam has built an international reputation for producing one of the finest bourbons for over 200 years. The acclaimed family recipe will live on inside the refreshed bottle. Emphasising this award-winning spirit, Jim Beam Black was awarded the Bourbon Trophy as the highest rated bourbon at the 2016 International Wine &amp; Spirits Competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo-300x154.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo.jpg 380w\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6111 size-medium lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"    data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1650853751\"  \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6111 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo-300x154.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo-300x154.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/DFH-weblogo.jpg 380w\" width=\"300\" height=\"154\" data-pagespeed-url-hash=\"1650853751\"><\/noscript><\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Flying soon?
