What Is Bourbon?

Ah, Bourbon! Bourbon drinks are so delicious and versatile, and are perfect for sophisticated fireside sipping, or for shaking into fun and playful cocktails! This fantastic liquor is enjoyed by many of us, yet still, a lot of people find themselves asking ‘what is bourbon?’ Well, if you find yourself pondering this question, fear not! We are here to help, and we can dive into the world of bourbon together. 

Bourbon is a type of whiskey, that is produced only in The United States of America. This distilled liquor is barrel-aged, which means that this spirit is matured and left to rest inside charred-oak wooden barrels.

Bourbon is made from primarily fermented corn mash, and for legal reasons for a bourbon to be allowed to call itself ‘bourbon’, it must be made up of at least 51% corn mash. Bourbon has a delicious flavor, and a unique flavor profile of caramel, vanilla, spices, and oak. Are you wondering how to drink bourbon? Bourbon is great to sip alone, mix with juice or soft drinks for a mixed drink, and is also great for cocktails. Bourbon is used in many different cocktails, such as an Old Fashioned, or a Mint Julep.

How Is It Made?

So, if you are contemplating your favorite bourbon drinks and wondering what is bourbon and what is bourbon made from? Then let’s find out! As said before, bourbon is made from a fermented corn mash. When we say ‘mash’ we mean the mixture of grains used, that the end product is distilled from. The majority of the mash is corn (usually around 70% on average), but also rye, wheat, and barley grains can be used. Wheat adds to the smoothness of the end spirit.

These raw grains undergo a milling process, and the resultant product then undergoes a procedure of heating, cooking, and cooling. Freshwater is used, to allow the starch in the grain to be cooked, and the sugar extracted. The fermentation process is encouraged by the addition of yeast. In this fermentation, the yeast converts sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide and takes around 3 days. 

This fermented mash is then distilled at 125 proof or less. Column stills are generally used for the distillation process. Bourbon is then stored to age and mature in oak barrels, which are used in order to create this delicious charred-oak-infused flavor. Bourbon tends to be stored for between 2 to 4 years.

Where Does It Come From? 

What is bourbon made from and where does it originate? So, bourbon is an American type of whiskey, traditionally associated with the ’Bluegrass State’ of Kentucky. A staggering 95% of the world's bourbon is made in Kentucky! Bourbon can be made anywhere in America, but legally it must be made only in the USA. In 1964, Congress declared bourbon to be ‘America’s Native Spirit’. Therefore, according to US trade legislation, bourbon can technically be made anywhere but must be produced in America to be legally allowed to label itself as ‘bourbon’.

Previously, it was produced in many places, including Scotland and Brooklyn, but these days it is mostly only made in Kentucky. But that doesn’t stop this fantastic liquor from being enjoyed all over the world!

FAQs

What Is The Difference Between Whiskey and Bourbon?

All bourbon is whiskey, but not all whiskey is bourbon. The way that bourbon is different from other whiskeys is based on the way that bourbon is made and aged, with bourbon having stricter production rules. So, bourbon must be made from a minimum of 51% corn mash, but typically is made from around 70% corn mash. This corn content gives it a fabulous sweetness. 

Also, bourbon must be aged in new charred oak barrels. Bourbon also has strict ABV rules. For example, bourbon mash must be distilled at 80% ABV and aged in barrels until 62.5% or less. It then must be bottled at a minimum of 40% ABV. Whiskey, on the other hand, doesn’t have as strict rules on distillation, or the aging process.

Is Bourbon a Hard Liquor?

When we talk of ‘hard liquor’, people are often referring to a drink that is a distilled spirit made through distilling grains, vegetables, or fruits. On the other hand, other alcoholic beverages such as beer and wine are made via fermentation. So yes, bourbon is a hard liquor. Other hard liquors include gin, rum, brandy, tequila, or vodka.

Does Bourbon Get You Drunk?

Yes, bourbon will indeed get you drunk! With a minimum ABV of 40%, and some brands going a lot higher than this, drinking bourbon will definitely get you drunk if you have enough of it. The average person will get drunk after 4 shots, which is approximately 120ml to 180ml. Of course, your size and body weight can affect this also. 

Plus, how much you have (or haven’t) eaten that day will affect how drunk you get too. So, always remember to drink sensibly and in moderation, to avoid getting dangerously drunk. Drink a lot of water too, to stay hydrated and avoid horrible hangovers!

Is Bourbon Stronger Than Whiskey?

Bourbon is a type of whiskey, and some bourbons can be stronger than some whiskeys. For example, this Wild Turkey Rare Breed Bourbon has an ABV of 56.4%, which can be higher than some generic whiskeys, which tend to have an ABV of 40%. Of course, it all depends on the bourbon and on the whiskey.

Is Bourbon Stronger Than Vodka?

It depends on which definition of ‘stronger’ you use. So, for alcoholic content, depending on the brand, whiskey and vodka can have different or the same ABV content. If we are looking at ‘stronger’ in terms of flavor, then bourbon does tend to have a stronger flavor than vodka and the flavor is more distinct, whereas vodka tends to have a more neutral flavor.

Is Bourbon Healthy?

Bourbon does tend to be healthier than other alcohols such as wine and beer, as it has a low-calorie content (approximately 100 calories per shot), little sugar, and no carbs. Of course, this is if bourbon is drunk neat, as adding mixers such as juice or soda tends to increase the sugar content of the drink. So, sip your bourbon straight! Also, always remember that any alcohol consumed in excess will be unhealthy, and therefore alcohol must always be consumed in moderation.
