We’re discussing Bottled in Bond bourbon this week, including whether this designation is still important in today’s whiskey world. Whether the distillery is a major producer or a craft whiskey maker, the reasons for labeling their spirits as “bonded” will differ. But is this important for the consumer?  We also line up 3 Bottled in Bond Kentucky Bourbons from some of the larger producers in the state.  How do they hold up in a blind tasting and which is our favorite?
