The Japanese are very large consumers of Kentucky Bourbon.

I much prefer a good Bourbon to a good Scotch.
The Scots even reuse Bourbon barrels to age their whisky. Or maybe that is just being cheap. :D TR |

In the US, it is illegal to re-use a whiskey barrel. The Scot's on the other hand have learned that the used barrels impart their taste into the next barreling. The author of the rating, James Murray, is/was very influential in the industry. Not sure he'll get offered a pint if he shows up in Scotland now?? |

Here are a few of my bourbons, and a fifty year old powderhorn of Dickel (far left) after a recent tasting.

Hope you can enjoy one of our favorites, "Bulleit" Bourbon. It is great for just about any occasion, and makes a fantastic additive to any homemade whipped cream recipe for the Holidays!:) (Great for the topper on Hot cocoa or similar drinks.) Holly "To this day, Bulleit Bourbon is distilled and aged in small batches. High rye content gives it a bold, spicy character with a distinctively smooth, clean finish. Kentucky limestone-filtered water provides a foundation for the bourbon's character, while charred American oak barrels lend a smoky backbone. Our aging philosophy is simple: we wait until our bourbon is ready." |

Just found out this information, which seems to be right along the lines...:o A Great Burbon, IMHO, with all kinds of uses in and out of the kitchen.;) http://www.diageo.com/en-us/newsmedi...esourceid=2329 Diageo Breaks Ground on New $115 Million Kentucky Distillery – The Bulleit Distilling Co.Download file SHELBYVILLE, Ky., August 21, 2014 – Diageo broke ground today on its new Shelby County, Kentucky distillery, which the company announced will officially be called "The Bulleit Distilling Co." after the distillery's flagship brand. Kentucky Governor Steve Beshear, and a number of other elected officials and Kentucky dignitaries, joined Diageo executives and Bulleit founder Tom Bulleit to celebrate the milestone. This May, Diageo announced its intention to invest an estimated $115 million to build the 1.8 million proof gallon (750,000 9-liter cases) distillery and six barrel warehouses. In June, Shelby County's Triple S Planning Commission unanimously approved the distillery project. Along with Bulleit Bourbon, the facility will distill a number of current and future Diageo bourbon and North American Whiskey brands. "Tom Bulleit has a genuine passion for his bourbon that he shares with everyone he meets. The growth of the Bulleit brand is the result of many years of investment and the relationships Tom has built," said Larry Schwartz, President, Diageo North America. "We are proud to be breaking ground on the new home of Bulleit Bourbon in this wonderful location in Shelby County. We look forward to becoming a valued member of the community for many years to come." |
