    Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes

    Bourbon is in a class by itself, and there are strict laws defining it. Broadly speaking, bourbon has to be at least 51% corn-based (with other grains like wheat, rye, and barley making up the balance) and sged in new, charred oak barrels.

    Beyond that, flavor profiles run the gamut. Bourbon is know for being produced in Kentucky, but distilleries other states have their own take on bourbon whisky. Here you'll find the tasting notes of the bourbons I've tried.

    Hi, I'm Tammy! My fascination with baking comes from my love of science and the magic of bringing together ingredients to produce something yummy. Coupling that with my appreciation of scotches and bourbons, I love to bake stuff, jot down my whisky tasting notes, and share my experiences with you!
