Beschreibung

The Bourbon Tasting Notebook is a handy logbook for any bourbon enthusiast. With a record amount of bourbon whiskey aging in warehouses and visits to Kentucky's bourbon distilleries topping half a million annually, it is obvious that bourbon is enjoying unprecedented popularity. This logbook will give bourbon lovers the perfect way to track their samplings, with over 500 featured brands including major Kentucky distilleries and independent brands. Authors Susan Reigler and Michael Veach sampled every brand featured, documenting the flavors, tastes and smells they experienced, along with the proof, age, type, style, mash bill, color, price, nose, taste, and finish for each bourbon, and full-color photos of each bottle for easy reference. They did not assign ratings, letting the reader make their own determination. The bourbons are also indexed by proof, style, price, and state, along with a checklist so each person can keep track of what has been sampled and record his or her preferences. This 4×8.5-inch, softbound book includes 632 pages, printed in full-color on durable glossy paper for superior photo reproduction, a lasting testament to the care and quality that goes into creating these quality brands.
