There are four different ways to drink your bourbon, as well as four ways to properly enjoy it.
You can drink whiskey mixed, on the rocks, with a splash of water, or neat. But no matter how you take your drink, there are four steps to enjoying it.
First take a good whiff and enjoy the aroma. Then check out the color and appreciate the age (as well as the money you've just spent on that dram). Then sip and enjoy. Finally, repeat.

[@davidszakacs6888]

I toured A. Smith Bowman in Fredericksburg, Va. The production supervisor gave us a personal tour and tasting lesson. The proper way to drink an aged whiskey is to allow it to sit in the glass one minute for every year it was in the barrel. He demonstrated this to us and there really is a difference.

[@jimpiser6169]

First of all, I prefer my bourbon with a cube. But as a bourbon connoisseur we are not snobby and we don’t care how you drink it, just drink it. If you are drinking your favorite bourbon with coke, then it will be the best bourbon and coke you’ve ever had. If you like it with water, then it’s the best bourbon and water you’ve ever had. Bourbon is America’s native spirit so you’re doing your patriotic duty by drinking it!

[@Joab03291999]

jim piser There’s no such thing as being patriotic by drinking fucking bourbon. You aren’t cool because you do or don’t drink. You aren’t cool if you do or don’t mix an expensive spirit with coke. Fucking pisses me off you think you’re doing America a favor by destroying your liver. Lmao. Ok.

@@Joab03291999 I didn't take it literal at all. Also, drinking a little Whiskey now and then is no worse for you than anything else imo. I dont really drink but I enjoy one every so often.

[@lanceburnett27]

The reason the ice ball works better is because it has LESS surface area than broken up ice. Therefore less ice touches the bourbon and it doesn't water it down as fast.

[@brianhawkins]

And also doesn’t cool as fast. You can’t have the cooling without the dilution. The big rock just changed how fast it melts.

[@DonDon-zm3vz]

i still haven’t figured out what i like better .. i’ve cubes or ice ball

You can use big chunks of ice, works the same when you aren't able to get fancy..

[@youngtred8885]

Just turned 21 recently & learned quick that there is a lot of history behind each bottle of whatever you drink. Still learning & experiencing new things about bourbon, I like mine on the rocks. Or neat, maybe on the rocks with some tonic water after a few 😂 I love the video! All be safe out there 😎

[@SgtMantis]

I take mine with two ice cubes. At first I get the pure experience, then slowly the water dash where some flavores begin to show. Then a little more water where other nuances come out. Every Bourbon has a unique series of transitions , and toward the end they're all refreshing and cold.

[@staceycarter1977]

Yep, there's no wrong way, but that's what I do as well.

Ya, I completely agree. Their channel does a great job of constantly telling people it is their personal opinion and other people may completely disagree which is okay.

[@tobiojr]

Justin I really want to do one of their courses but I live in Australia I will get their one day when I am trying a new Whisk(e)y I have a few sips of it neat then drink the rest how I enjoy it

[@WhiskeyCowboyGaming]

That's a nice sentiment. But it's kind of like , " Everyone who plays gets a trophy." It's nice to say , but dumb in practice. I have to agree with our host here. The distillery did spend hours / days / years perfecting their mash. Getting their Barrels to the perfect char and then aging it 4 - 20 + years for some to thrn pour a soda made of high fructose corn syrup and cancer over top of it. I going to guess that zero master distillers drink bourbon and coke. Just a guess though.

[@jbw5485]

@@WhiskeyCowboyGaming this isn’t a competition with actual winners and losers here though. We are all winners if we’re enjoying our drinks. Right? I understand exactly what your point is, but don’t turn your nose up at someone else for enjoying something differently than you. Everyone experiences things differently. The companies have been paid for their time perfecting their whiskey. And we are not “master distillers”. We just want to enjoy a drink.

First, I'm glad I stuck around for the Honda Civic bit. Second, I always keep 2 bottles of whiskey at the house. Something cheap for my friends that like to mix it, and a 100 proof Knob Creek, which I explain is for sipping only. Sipping bourbon does not go into a mixed drink. However, I've found that my guests enjoy the most expensive whisk(e)y I can afford.

[@LatteBrown]

Beginner Bourbon drinker - I've been interested in bourbon starting about 5 years ago when I entered a liquor store and asked for suggestions-Maker's Mark. Then I tried Woodford Reserve. Now that I'm really interested in bourbons, a few days ago I purchased 4 different beginner brands-Eagle Rare (like), Buffalo Trace (sipping with this video, like), Elijah Craig (not yet), Knob Creek (not yet), had a small bottle of Bulleit (? will revisit). I'm not a snob yet so I drink mine neat with a glass of ice water as a chaser a few minutes after a sip. Thanks for the instructions!

[@TheBourbonite]

I was a dedicated Knob Creek drinker for a long time! Sounds like you've made some fantastic choices already!

I like clear ice for my alcoholic drinks, so I make my own ice. I purchased my first bottle of Marker's Mark 46 and fell in love. I tried it with my homemade clear ice, the fragrance and taste blew me away. It's kind of sweet, which won me over. Now I'll have to try my other Bourbons on the rocks as well.

Difference is Jack (MOST Jack) is cheap and expected to be mixed because, while it can certainly taste good straight to some, it doesn't have nearly the amount of minute flavor notes as some other, possibly higher priced bourbons, ryes, etc. i.e. don't add coke to red label Whistle Pig (and don't be fooled by the price of blue label, it's worse..), but knock yourself out with standard Jack.

The sphere has less surface area than a cube, of equal volume, so that's why it melts slower and dilutes things less quickly. Enjoyable video though thanks!

As a resident living up the road from Ironclad and a share holder of Ironclad, I recommend the one they aged in barrels they lent to a coffee company to age bourbon flavored coffee and then aged their bourbon in the barrels to get a coffee note.

My favorite way - in cold glass(no ice) just put in the fridge for some time before. Add whiskey or bourbon..drink, enjoy. If I do not have time..just drink whiskey. The end XD
