Tonight I thought I would try out another flavored whiskey to see if it's just the imitation honey or if it's all added flavors. I'm trying out Jim Beam Apple flavored whiskey. The bottle says apple liquor with Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. Basically that means it's two alcohols, one being bourbon, mixed together.

And here we go...

Method: Neat
Color: Watered down tea.
Alcohol Content: 35%
Price: 9.99 from Wally World
Nose: Those Halloween caramel apple suckers that you wait to eat because they're always mad melted.
Taste: Those same suckers but only on fire.
Finish: Intense apple flavor. Fire whiskey burn. I think if they went along an apple pie flavor where smoke would be acceptable this would be great but as it stands as a just apple flavor it's alright.

CONCLUSION:

This isn't as bad as the honey. But it's still not a whiskey. I feel like there should be another name; scotch, bourbon, whiskey, flavors. It's not terrible. If you're trying to lure a 22 year-old woman into your dungeon and you've run out of pumpkin spice coffees this might work.

Wait, do they make pumpkin spice alcohol? I need to investigate.
