Jim Beam Rye is the rye whiskey from Jim Beam, a house in Clermont, Kentucky, which carries the date 1795 on its label and now belongs to Suntory Global Spirits. The 700 ml bottle sold in Brazil uses the green Pre-Prohibition Style label, a reference to the ryes made in the United States before Prohibition.

It is a Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey: the recipe contains at least 51% rye and the spirit ages in new American white oak barrels, charred on the inside. It comes in at 40% (80 proof). The brand recommends it for whiskey cocktails such as the Manhattan and the Old Fashioned.
