The Bourbon Bible

Bought as a gift. Nicely summarized bourbon guide with cocktail recipes included. They will love!

We purchased this as a gift for a friend that is a bourbon collector. He really enjoyed the book, as did we. After he received the gift we all sat around reading parts of it. It was so interesting and gave a lot of information.

Very nice book, but it in a bourbon gift basket.

Explanation of the whiskey making process and history is excellent. However, in trying to also be a guide to the breadth and variety of all available bourbons, the author runs into the problem of information becoming outdated almost as soon as it is published. Still an excellent effort, and a good read!

I have a bar crew that has little experience with whiskeys. Gen Z has been agave agave agave and now that they are getting older and ready for the big boy drinks us millennials were sneaking from our dad’s whiskey cabinets they have no clue or reference point where to start! This book is the perfect start to helping mid 20s bartenders understand the roots of american whiskey without having to have grandpa “aka myself” tell 5 million bedtime stories about elijah craig, evan williams, eh taylor, the samuels, the van winkles, blah blah blah…. And its nice to see people read books these days… ok all this whiskey talk is making me feel like a dram of taylor … buy the book for yourself or the kiddies

So awesome! My step dad is an avid bourbon lover and its worth the purchase for SURE.

I am new to bourbon. This book goes into the history of the spirit as well as details the different bourbons out there. Great addition to the bar.

My husband loves bourbon but isn’t a fan of books. Ever since I got this for him for Christmas he has been flipping through it and reading it so much. It’s already one of his most used gifts. He says there are so many bourbons included so he can see what he wants to try and read flavor profiles.

Probably the only bible that’s truthful.

Geweldig boek, veel informatie wat ik zocht. De cocktails zijn niet heel verrassend maar ik had dit boek besteld om wat meer kennis van Bourbon te krijgen.

Bought this book in January this year. As a student of wine and spirits, I found this book a good addition to my library. PART 1 covers Bourbon history, making process and label reading in very illustrative and easy to understand way. PART2, short history and (flavour)tasting notes of different Bourbons is also interesting, specially the tasting notes section has been described in a good manner, specially if you are studying spirits and/or understand impact of raw material and wood, tasting notes(flavour) part will become more interesting to read. It also make you learn to write a professional tasting note. PART3, a bit of history and recipes felt weak part of this book. It is there to be there as a recipe to a good book on Bourbon.

Nice book with a dictionary of different bourbons, the history, how its made and how to read labels is handy. The book is also beautifully present woukd make a great gift for the bourbon lover in your life or a nice gift for yourself
