Ezra Brooks Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 70 cl

Product Information

You really can’t go wrong with either if you’re looking at the bottom shelf. They are both strong classic American bourbons and perfect examples of hot rye spice! Recommended Reads: Grunden bag siger ‘John Rempe’ (deres master distiller) var dette - “Folk der drikker bourbon ved hvad de leder efter, og kommentarer fra vores gæster i vores “Tasting Room” gav vej for en højere ‘proof’ version af vores almindelige mash. Jeg elsker selv højere ‘proof’. Så vores mål med Ezra Brooks 99 var en forbedring - at skabe en højere ‘proof’ bourbon uden at ofre de rige noter, som Ezra Brooks er kendt for.” Bourbon is a strictly American spirit. America’s Native Spirit, in fact, according to Congress. In 1964 they decreed that Bourbon the drink most representative of America. Which makes sense as you’ll see below. A billboard advertising the Ezra Brooks brand was featured in the film The Sting. [4] This was an anachronism, however. The film was set in 1936 while the Ezra Brooks brand would not appear for another 20 years.

Hvis destilleriet lyder bekendt, så er det fordi, at Lux Row Distillers også står bag nogle af de ældste bourbon brands i verden, såsom Rebel Yell og de kendte limited edition flasker Blood Oath.

Evan Williams typically uses rye and barley in their mash, rarely ever wheat. This leads to a higher concentration of pepper and cinnamon spice in addition to nuts and grains. The longer aging times adds strong wood and oak flavors. But remember they have bottled a lower proof in many cases so you’ll find more approachable varieties. The top five flavors to look for (not including the flavored varieties): In 1979, 21 Brands (and the Ezra Brooks brand along with it) were acquired by the Medley Distilling Company, which moved production of the bourbon to their own distillery in Owensboro. Medley was acquired by Glenmore in 1988, itself acquired by United Distillers in 1991. United Distillers tossed Ezra Brooks to Heaven Hill like a hot potato the next year; just a year after that, Heaven Hill sold the brand to Luxco, then known as the David Sherman Company. The fermented mash goes through distillation twice. Once in a column still that removes the alcohol from the rest of the mash. And again through a copper doubler pot that will enhance the natural flavors of the whiskey and further purify it. Nose with Water: Water brings out much more fruit and chocolate notes, but the burnt wood, vanilla, and caramel stay. There’s also a hint of butterscotch. And since all bourbon is aged in charred oak, there is a hint of caramelized sugar as well. The toasted wood sugars really do influence the flavor of the bottle, depending on how long they’ve been aged. Flavors to Look For:Another draw.
