Online sale of Bourbon Kentuchy Whiskey and the original Moonshine U.S.A, aged and not from the best distilleries!

Bourbon is a brandy obtained from the distillation of corn must, in a percentage that must be at least 51% of the mash bill and other cereals including rye (rye), wheat and malt.

Another fundamental characteristic is that it must strictly refine in American oak barrels, previously burned.

We are therefore talking about an extreme distillate, unfiltered, non-dosed and devoid of any coloring, such as caramel; this choice is reflected in a sweeter and buttery starting taste due to corn, to which are added caramel, woody, toffee, toffee, popcorn and obviously vanilla flavors and aromas. What is never lacking is wood, intense and very smoky, but there is not the slightest trace of peat except in Mc Carthy's whiskey from Oregon, considered the Caol Illa of Bourbons.

Bourbon is the most famous type of Whiskey in the United States and is produced with the distillation of a mixture of cereals, in which corn occupies the preponderant part.

 The name Bourbon derives from the Bourbon of France, once the 'owners' of the main states of the southern United States, who gave their name to Bourbon County, the county in the state of Kentucky where the whiskey was born

Bourbon Whiskey owes its name to the county of the same name in the state of Kentucky, where it was first produced in 1789 by Reverend Elijah Craig.

According to the disciplinary, in order to be called Bourbon the distillate must be aged in new and toasted oak barrels: this procedure gives it the classic amber color and hints of vanilla and wood; if the barrel rest is two years it can be called Straight Bourbon.

Another popular variety is rye whiskey, the base of which is made up of rye - in English rye - and other cereals: an American whiskey with a pale blond color and a high alcohol content.

In this section you can choose the best Bourbons to be enjoyed straight, with ice (on the rocks, as they say) or in cocktails such as Bourbon Sour or Old Fashioned.
