Heaven Hill Bourbon

Post by John Barleycorn »

It's like a cheaper, less delicious version of Evan Williams. Drank a handle of it Saturday, felt completely exhausted on Sunday and still a bit sluggish on Monday, but none of that head smashed in hangover feeling. Just a frightening suspicion that I had extinguished my inner flame, life force, or something minor like that. I'll have to compare it to the identically priced Old Crow.

Considering the low cost of Evan Williams, at some point, deliciousness has to take priority.

don't Heaven Hill produce Evan Williams as a brand?
I got Clarke's Bourbon, an export only brand mostly sold in Germany, but I believe it is produced by Heaven Hill, though I couldn't be too sure. It's lovely and sweet, exactly what I want a bourbon to be. It's like a lighter Maker's Mark and 1/3 of the price

Cheap and potent. I always buy a shot of this and chase it with a Bud Light if I'm hard up. A terrible tasting combination but it gets the job done cheaply, y'know?

See all the automation in that video, that's why I'm going back to school to learn to fix the control circuits for that stuff. So I can move to Kentucky and work at a distillery.
