Each bourbon is unique, however at the same time you can cluster them into groups with similar interests and characters called flavour camps. The four most common flavour notes found in bourbon are grain, caramel, cinnamon, and nutmeg, and these comprise the major flavour camps.
This bourbon tasting kit has been organized with a curated selection of bourbons that span these four core bourbon flavour camps creating a unique sample flight. Grouping the bourbons like this helps you to identify the major types of bourbons you prefer, which helps you to zero in on new bourbons to try that belong to similar cohorts.
All bourbon is whiskey, but not all whiskey is bourbon. Bourbon must be made in the United States, and its primary grain is corn. The corn used for bourbon is different than the corn on the cob purchased in a grocery store. For bourbon, farmers raise field corn, a variety of maize also referred to as “dent corn.” Unlike the corn you get from a grocery store, you cannot pick field corn straight from the farm and take a bite because it is hard as a rock, an you might loose a tooth! But, in the end, corn matters a lot less than the secondary grains—rye or wheat—which distillers frequently call the flavour grains.
