Bourbon and other American Whiskeys
Bourbon whiskey is a category of whiskey that is beloved for its rich history, distinctive flavor profile, and iconic status as America's native spirit. Born in the USA, specifically in Kentucky, bourbon has gained worldwide recognition for its craftsmanship and unique production methods.
The most popular distilleries are Woodford, Wild Turkey és a Buffalo Trace.
Bourbon is made primarily from corn, with a minimum requirement of 51% corn content in the mash bill. This high corn content contributes to its characteristic sweetness and smoothness. The remaining grains typically include malted barley, rye, or wheat, adding complexity and depth to the flavor.
