Evan Williams Description
It?s that time of year when we start thinking about Mint Juleps, and what better way to make this cocktail than with a great value whiskey such as the new ?Bottled in Bond? Evan Williams Kentucky Straight Bourbon. At 100 proof, it certainly will give you a lot of booze for the bucks, but also is an incredibly well balanced whiskey that does not taste overly syrupy or sweet like many bourbons around this price level. Evan Williams was the first distiller in Kentucky and has their standard bourbons in green, black and white labels at 60, 80 and 100 proof respectively. The bourbon is named after a Welshman, who after settling in Kentucky, was one of the first people to make his own hooch in the late 1780?s near Louisville. The Evan Williams brand was introduced by parent company Heaven Hill in 1957 and quickly became one of the country?s most popular bourbons. With the additional alcohol strength, this will do very well in mixed drinks and inexpensive enough to play around with if you are feeling adventurous in the mixology department. Start off with our classic Mint Julep below!
