Evan Williams Black Label is Heaven Hill's flagship Kentucky straight bourbon, aged 4 years and bottled at 86 proof. It leads with vanilla and mint on the nose, then oak, brown sugar and caramel on a smooth, rounded palate. It is a versatile, easy-drinking bourbon built for sipping neat, on the rocks, or in an Old Fashioned or whiskey sour. Against rivals like Jim Beam White and Wild Turkey 81, it is aged longer and drinks a touch fuller, which is why it has become a bar and home staple.
