Bourbon Whiskey

Bourbon whiskey is usually shortened to just "bourbon" when it's being ordered at a bar. This spirit has gained notoriety over the years as a high-quality liquor. At TheLiquorStore.com, you have many options to choose from to stock up a thorough wet bar.

The Process of Making Bourbon

The ingredient that makes bourbon whiskey is corn. By law, a bourbon must be distilled from at least 51 percent corn. There might be other grains involved, but the majority is corn. The distilling containers should be charred oak as well. If the producers use any deviations from this formula, the drink cannot be called bourbon.

Enjoy It Neat or On the Rocks

Pull out a glass and pour the drink as a neat, ice-free drink. On a hot night, you might add some rocks to your glass and fill it up for a more refreshing drink.

Those Classic Cocktails

Whiskey sours, old fashioneds and mint juleps are some of the best cocktails to make using bourbon whiskey. In some cases, people simply add a little spice to their drink. Try a hot and spicy whiskey that will work well with your mixing technique.
