This 100-proof whiskey was matured for a minimum of four years in a federally bonded warehouse. According to the brand, it’s known for its nose of caramelized apples, maraschino cherries, clove, nutmeg, and roasted pecans. The palate is a mix of caramel, apple pie, cherries, and gentle wintry spices. The finish is long and lingering and features vanilla, nutty, and butterscotch notes.

“We are thrilled to expand the Doc Holliday Collection with this exceptional Bottled in Bond Bourbon,” Alex Kogan, CEO of the World Whiskey Society, said in a press release.

“This release embodies the unyielding craftsmanship that defines our whiskeys. It’s a remarkable addition to our portfolio and a celebration of truly extraordinary bourbon.”

If you enjoy the other Doc Holiday whiskeys, you’re going to want to purchase a bottle of this bottle-in-bond version.

From George Washington to modern distilleries: Bourbon’s all-American journey

The surprising history of bourbon and why it’s more American than apple pie

Whiskey barrels

If you didn’t know it already, September is Bourbon Heritage Month. It was officially declared in 2007 by the U.S. Senate after being sponsored by Kentucky Senator Jim Bunning. Each fall, it’s celebrated to pay homage to America’s “native spirit” and its historical value, and the importance of the bourbon industry.

In my alcohol writing career, I’ve enjoyed countless glasses of bourbon. And while I’ll definitely sip my fair share of bourbon in September, to truly get the most out of this important month, it’s a good idea to learn a little about the history of this truly American form of whiskey, along with the stories and legends surrounding it.

These underrated bourbons deserve a spot in your fall whiskey rotation

Prepare for fall by purchasing these lesser-known bourbons

Pouring a glass of whiskey.

Bourbon is the epitome of America in a glass. The United States’ “native spirit” is as American as the designated hitter, bright yellow school buses, and McDonald’s apple pie. It’s entrenched in the history of America, with many big names like Maker’s Mark, Jim Beam, Woodford Reserve, and Wild Turkey taking center stage. But, while you can’t go wrong with any of these brands and expressions, if you really want to get the most out of this corn-based whiskey, you’ll try one of the countless lesser-known (but just as noteworthy) bourbons on the market.
A background on bourbon

Before we get into these underrated gems, it’s important to take a step back and let you in on the rules and regulations surrounding bourbon. Because there are a few. First, to be considered a bourbon, it must be made with a mash bill of at least 51% corn.
And while there are a handful of other rules, the second most important is based on geography. Bourbon, like Cognac in certain areas of France and tequila in specific Mexican states, can only be produced in the US. Even though someone might try to tell you that it can only be produced in Kentucky, that’s simply not true. Sure, more than 90% of all bourbon is made in the Blue Grass State, but it can be made anywhere in the US, including DC and Puerto Rico.

Honey whiskey 101: What it is, how to use it, and which brands to try now

what exactly is honey whiskey?

Tullamore D.E.W Irish Whiskey

Flavored whiskey is big business in the spirits world. Take a stroll along the aisles at your local liquor store or peruse your go-to online retailer, and you’ll be met with myriad flavored whiskeys. This includes flavors such as cinnamon, maple, chocolate, fruit, and honey (among others). And I could write an article about the various popular flavored whiskeys. But today is all about honey. What exactly is honey whiskey?

In my years of writing professionally, I’ve tried my fair share of flavored whiskeys. Many of which are honey whiskeys. While I wouldn’t drink these whiskeys every day and likely not neat (not judging you if you do) or on the rocks, they are well-suited for a wintry Hot Toddy or to elevate your favorite whiskey-based cocktail.
