The holidays are coming up quickly. If you’re anything like us, you’ll drink your fair share of whisky during all the seasonal parties and get-togethers. Jim Beam knows all about that. And while you can’t go wrong with the brand’s iconic White Label or one of its other expressions, this year, Jim Beam is releasing a whiskey explicitly created to be enjoyed during the holiday season.

It’s called Jim Beam Winter Reserve, a limited-edition seasonal whiskey. Be sure to find a home on holiday tables from coast to coast. This Kentucky straight bourbon is matured for six years in charred oak before being finished in toasted barrels. The result is a complex, sippable whiskey with notes of cinnamon candy, vanilla beans, toffee, and wintry spices.

“At Jim Beam, we’re always looking for ways to innovate while staying true to our deeply rooted heritage,” Fred Noe, Jim Beam’s seventh-generation Master Distiller, said in a press release. “With Winter Reserve, we wanted to create a special bourbon that embodies the warmth of the holidays and the bold flavors that pair well with cold weather. We are excited to share it with our community and hope its holiday-inspired flavors bring people together to celebrate the joy of the season.”

Monkey 47

Made in Germany’s Black Forest, Monkey 47 is one of the most popular gin brands in the world. Its flagship expression, made with (you guessed it) forty-seven herbs and botanicals, is the type of gin that should already have a permanent spot on your home bar. The brand is launching a new gin that deserves to sit alongside it.

The German distillery is launching the fourteenth edition of its highly-regarded Distiller’s Cut Gin. While the original recipe has only 47 ingredients, Distiller’s Cut adds one more. This edition gets the added aroma and flavor from tangy, salty capers. For those unaware, capers are a popular ingredient in Mediterranean fare. And this is precisely where Monkey 47 looked to find its newest ingredient.
