Kentucky Bourbon Trail Tasting: How to Savor Bourbon, the proper way…
First, take a look at the color of your bourbon. A lighter color indicates a lighter flavor, while a deeper, darker color means a more complex taste.
Next, let’s use our noses to fully experience the aroma of the bourbon. Gently put your nose into the glass and open your mouth or part your lips to smell. Avoid keeping your mouth closed as this may cause the alcohol fumes to overpower the scent of the bourbon.
Now for the fun part – the “Kentucky Chew”! Take a sip of bourbon and roll it around in your mouth to fully explore all its flavors. Each area of your mouth will pick up on different notes, so make sure to give it a thorough chew before swallowing.
Once you’ve swallowed, take some time to assess the lingering flavor that remains in your mouth.
And finally, embrace that delicious “Kentucky Hug” – that warm sensation in your throat and upper body as the bourbon goes down into your stomach.
