So, I’ll be honest and confess that I am trying my best to try to like bourbon because my husband enjoys it so much, but most everyone I’ve tried really does taste pretty much exactly the way imagine gasoline or lighter fluid would taste. Over ice, of course. I am typically more of a gin or vodka person but I tried it on a whim in a cocktail at a restaurant l and I must say that I really did enjoy it! I was very pleasantly surprised because I really have tried a bunch of different bourbons - enough to be able to distinguish between ryes and wheats (My husband thinks it’s fun to have me do taste tests to see all the differences in them. They still end up tasting like either rye or wheat flavored turpentine to me though... IDK). But I have now tried a couple of different mixed drinks and just on the rocks and I am actually still surprisingly happy with the taste. I can’t decide if this makes me a person of discerning tastes or if it just proves that I can only drink something with an umbrella in it. I’m probably committing some sort of bourbon sacrilege but admitting that I like it but so be it. I may not know what’s good but I know what I like. And I like this stuff.
