bourbon 2oz pours
BOURBON continued, 2oz pours
With the highest level of legal restrictions for American whiskey, bourbon keeps
things on the straight and narrow. Bourbon must be produced in the States and have
a grain mixture of at least 51% corn, which makes the spirit noticeably sweeter than
other whiskeys. Aged in new, charred oak containers and distilled to no more than
160 proof, bourbon must then enter barrels at no more than 125 proof and finally,
be bottled at no less than 80 proof. If no other spirits are blended and no coloring is
added, it can be called straight bourbon.
