What’s the difference between Bourbon & Whiskey?

Can you guess?

Newsroom July 13 04:19

Ree Drummond loves cooking with whiskey or whipping up an easy cocktail with it—but if you have a recipe that calls for whiskey, can you use bourbon instead? The answer is yes! This is because all bourbon is technically whiskey, but all whiskey is not bourbon. Read on to learn more about the differences between bourbon and whiskey.

Whiskey is a dark distilled spirit made from fermented grains such as rye, corn, wheat, and barley. It is an overarching term for this classification of spirits. Bourbon is a type of whiskey, but it comes with different distinctions and rules. To be classified as bourbon, a whiskey must be made from at least 51% corn, be made in the United States (many whiskeys are made in Scotland or Ireland), be aged in new, charred American white oak barrels, and be at least 80 proof. Bourbon often has a sweeter taste than other whiskeys because it is made from mostly corn.
