Derby Julep

Being fans of both the Derby and bourbon the Mint Julep is one of our favorite drinks and only times we agree that it is ok to mix bourbon with…well anything except water. As a favor to our loyal readers (all 3,000 a month of you) we did God’s work and tried a bunch of different recipes so that we could make a suggestion for you all.

Best Bourbon Bars: The Remington

There are nights when nothing sounds better than meeting up with your buddies for late night bourbon drinking. The hard part comes in trying to find a drinking establishment with a decent selection of bourbon. To help, The Boys of Bourbon is beginning a series of reviews chronicling the best places in America to drink bourbon. The first is called The Remington at the St. Regis Hotel in Houston.

While not 100% reliable, a good rule of thumb is:
Bars with a human skeleton riding a motorcycle on top of their bar are a good place to drink bourbon.

Old Charter | Rating 87

Make a baby boomer happy, drink Old Charter in a room that smells of rich mahogany. I decided to try a taste of Old Charter on a recent trip to see my parents.

It should be no surprise that a political town like D.C. has a place or two with a decent bourbon selection, but none is better than the aptly named Bourbon.

Redesign Almost Done

The redesign is up, but you will notice some bugs that need to be worked out. The main thing is getting all the old comments into the new system. They should be loaded soon.

Wild Turkey American Spirit

Thanks to Uncrate for the heads up on Wild Turkey’s new “super premium” bourbon. This must be the next logical step in the small batch bizarro arms race. Who knows if this stuff is any good (and full disclosure I am not a big Wild Turkey fan) but the bottle is definitely cool.
