26 minutes

Bernie Lubbers is the National Whiskey Brand Ambassador at Heaven Hill Distilleries. He tells us exactly what it takes for a Whiskey (or other Spirit) to be labeled as "Bonded in Bond".

For a spirit to be labeled "Bottled In Bond" it must be:

Composed of the same type of spirits and produced from the same class of materials

Produced in a single distilling season by one distiller at one distillery

Stored for at least 4 years in wooden containers

Reduced in proof with by the addition of only pure water to exactly 100 proof

The label must bear the real name of the distillery and the plant number where it was produced and where it was bottled

Book of the week:

Bourbon Whiskey Our Native Spirit: Sour Mash and Sweet Adventures 2nd Edition by Bernie Lubbers

Cocktail of the Week:

Horses Neck

2 oz Bourbon

2 dashes Angostura Aromatic Bitters

Ginger Ale

Long “ribbon” of lemon peel

Directions

Using a channel knife, peel a lemon in one long spiral. Twist around your finger or a barspoon to create a coil.

Drop the lemon coil into a highball or Collins glass leaving the end hanging over the lip and fill with ice.

Add bourbon and bitters. Top up with ginger ale.

(In a pinch, you can use a standard lemon wedge)

Toast of the Week:

May you…

Work like you don’t need the money,

love like you’ve never been hurt,

dance like no-one is watching,

screw like it’s being filmed,

and drink like a true Irishman.
