Bourbon has increasingly garnered significant global interest. Some attribute the surge in bourbon sales to the emergence of small-batch and single-barrel bourbons in the 1990s. Others suggest it may be linked to the renewed popularity of hard-liquor-consuming characters and settings featured in television series such as "Mad Men" and "Boardwalk Empire." Regardless of the cause, it is fitting to acknowledge this distinguished spirit on June 14th, National Bourbon Day, by enjoying a glass of this sweet amber whiskey. Additionally, September is recognized as National Bourbon Heritage Month, further commemorating the rich legacy of bourbon.
Below are a few ideas to help you celebrate this day...
Create Your Own Blind Bourbon Tasting
Invite friends over to do a blind bourbon tasting! A great (and cost-effective) way to do this is to ask them each to bring a bottle. Conducting an at-home bourbon tasting is the perfect way to discover what makes different varieties of bourbons unique, develop your palate, and even find your new go-to dram. Make it a competition and even have a trophy for the person who gets the most correct answers. Consider having a custom theme for the event as well.
