We should explain what bourbon is and what factors justify its high price-tag. Bourbon is a type of whiskey, so it’s an across-the-pond relative of scotch. However, in the U.S there are many types of whiskeys, like corn whiskey (made from mash containing at least 80% corn), and rye whiskey (mash contains at least 51% rye). Bourbon is made from mash that contains at least 51% corn and it usually comes from Southern States, in particular Kentucky. The only exception is Tennessee, which developed its own type of whiskey: Tennessee whiskey, which tastes similar to bourbon, though the production process differs through something called the Lincoln County Process, which involves filtering the drink through charcoal before putting it in barrels. Insidermonkey experts made a list of 10 best bourbons under $100.
First of all, you should check out the distillery and the brand owned by it. Then you should check out the age. Also, a premium bourbon will often be labeled “single barrel”, which means that each bottle will have some distinctive notes specific to the barrel it came from. Finally, some types of premium bourbon come from small-batches, and while this makes them more desirable, it may also be difficult to find them in stores. We have picked Willett Pot Still Reserve, its price is $35. The bottle housing has a nice shape (like a decanter or a pot still), so only for its look it deserves a place on a shelf. However, the taste doesn’t disappoint either. The bourbon has a slightly sweet honey and caramel taste with hints of vanilla and oak. Bottled at 94 proof, Willett Pot Still Reserve is perfect to be enjoyed neat or with some ice.
