Jim Beam Peach: Like sweet tea, front porches and pie cooling on the windowsill, Jim Beam Peach is a new southern staple. Here’s what Jim Beam has to say about them… Turns out these Jim Beam spirits are a little different. Our first thought was that these were flavored whiskeys in the vein of the flavored Crown Royal whiskeys that we’ve reviewed in the past which we found to be very hit ( Crown Royal Vanilla) or miss ( Crown Royal Regal Apple).
