Jim Beam Apple 700ml – Apple Liqueur Blended Into Kentucky Straight Bourbon
The nose is fresh, crisp green apple. The palate is juicy green apple with subtle oak underneath, and the finish is warm and smooth rather than sharp. The bourbon has not been buried. It shows up late in the sip, which is what separates this from a straight apple liqueur.
Get the fruit right in your head first. This is green apple, the tart supermarket kind, not baked apple and not apple pie. Most people who come back to the counter unhappy with a flavoured bourbon were expecting cinnamon and pastry.
At 32.5% it sits where the whole flavoured line sits. White Label is 37% in the Australian bottling and Black Extra Aged is 40%. Liqueur dilutes, so nothing flavoured climbs past 32.5%.
Jim Beam Apple Bourbon – What 32.5% Does to Your Standard Drinks
Work it out rather than guessing. Litres multiplied by ABV multiplied by 0.789 gives standard drinks, so 0.7 x 32.5 x 0.789 comes to 17.9 in the bottle. A 30ml nip is 0.77 of a standard drink, against 0.88 for the same nip of White Label.
That gap matters. Jim Beam apple bourbon goes down easily because it tastes like fruit, so people pour 60ml without thinking, and two of those is 1.5 standard drinks. The Australian standard drinks guide has the reference figures.
Jim Beam Apple Whiskey – Soda and Ginger Ale, Not Cola
Cola fights it. The caramel and the tart green apple argue with each other and you get a flat, faintly medicinal drink that wastes both. Soda water is the honest mixer: 30ml of Jim Beam apple whiskey, 120ml soda, one big cube, a wedge of lime. Dry ginger ale is better again if you want more going on, because the ginger heat lands where the bourbon oak already sits. Cloudy apple juice sounds obvious and turns out sickly.
Apple Jim Beam Against Honey, Peach and Pineapple – The Per 100mL Comparison
Here is the number nobody prints on a shelf label. At $79.99 for 700ml this is $11.43 per 100mL. Honey at $50.95 for the same size is $7.28, and Pineapple at $54.60 for 750ml is also $7.28. Only Peach is priced level, at $11.43.
Our position: if you want green apple specifically, buy this and enjoy it, because nothing else in the range tastes like it. If you want a flavoured bourbon for a barbecue jug and the fruit is negotiable, buy the Pineapple, keep $25.39 and get 50ml more liquid. The $35.00 gift box earns its place as a present and not otherwise.

Common questions
Ours is $79.99 for the 700ml bottle, which works out at $11.43 per 100mL. That sits it level with Peach and well above Honey and Pineapple, both of which land at $7.28 per 100mL. We do not run a membership price, so the figure you see on the page is the figure you pay at checkout.
Both, technically. It is apple liqueur blended with Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, which is why it bottles at 32.5% instead of the 37% you get in White Label. The bourbon is real and you can taste the oak on the finish. It is not a straight bourbon and the label does not claim to be one.
Soda water first, dry ginger ale second. Pour 30ml over a large cube, top with 120ml of mixer and add lime if the drink needs lifting. Avoid cola, because the caramel clashes with tart green apple, and avoid apple juice, which turns the whole thing cloying. Neat over ice works if you like your fruit forward.
17.9, calculated from 0.7 litres multiplied by 32.5 multiplied by 0.789. A 30ml nip is 0.77 of a standard drink and a 60ml pour is 1.5. Because the fruit hides the alcohol, home pours creep up, so measure the first couple if you are tracking what you drink.
Yes, as a $35.00 add-on at checkout on the 700ml bottle. The box holds the bottle only, with no glassware included. We pack every bottle in a moulded insert whether or not you take the box, so the gift packaging is presentation rather than protection in transit.
