For over 200 years and seven generations Jim Beam® Kentucky bourbon has been produced essentially the same way. Pride, passion, tradition and quality go into every bottle of this savory nectar but, it’s the American Oak charred barrels used to age that delicious bourbon that’s one stage here. To caramelize the sugars in the Oak, Jim Beam® fires the inside of their barrels to have what they call "alligator char”—a scaly, bumpy look of a gator's skin. Once filled, the bourbon will age for at least four years-- each barrel will hold about 53 gallons and weighs over 500 pounds. The barrel expands and contracts as the seasons change, allowing the bourbon to seep into the gator-charred oak— developing its amber color, plus its aroma and smooth bourbon flavor.

A barrel is only used once-- the company then sells them to collectors, craftsmen and other spirits makers to store rum, tequila, scotch, Irish whiskey and other liquors. You won’t smell the whisky in your pen but, I wish you were here in my workshop when I cut into these huge barrels-- the smell fills my shop-- you could get drunk from the fumes!

Crafted from a gorgeous chunk of a Jim Beam® American Oak bourbon barrel stave— the Oak barrel wood looks amazing and come with a certificate of authenticity— featuring an extremely smooth twist mechanism, Parker™ style ballpoint refill and gold plated accents and clip- you can easily take notes, draw or simply turn a page on your device with this gorgeous stylus writing pen. The durable rubber tip protects the device's surface from scratches and smudges and allows you to type precisely and comfortably. It works on all capacitive touch screen devices like the iPhone™, iPad™, iPod Touch™ and similar touch screen devices. Not only will your stylus pen be a one of a kind keepsake, it’s perfect for your brother, father, boyfriend or husband- it's guaranteed to knock his socks off!
