Heaven Hill Bourbon Whiskey, 1 L, 40%
Whiskey production after Prohibition
In 1934, shortly after the end of Prohibition, Heaven Hill Distillers Inc. was founded in Bardstown, Kentucky by the Shapira family. At the time, this new market was a highly speculative business, comparable to the internet market of the 1990s. The risk for Heaven Hill was enormous, as it had no brands or whiskey stocks of its own - and this in the middle of the "Great Depression".
After a short, successful production phase, the distillery was closed by the US government in 1942 to produce spirits for the war effort. After the end of the war and the entry of Earl Beam, from the Jim Beam Company, as master distiller in 1946, things went steeply uphill again. It was finally in 1957 that Evan Williams Bourbon was introduced and quickly became the most popular bourbon in the USA.
Heaven Hill Distillery today
Over the years, Heaven Hill introduced numerous successful brands such as Elijah Craig and Rittenhouse Rye and became the largest family-run spirits company in the USA. The company now has 900,000 barrels of whiskey in its halls. These are the seventh largest bourbon whiskey stocks in the world. In addition to bourbon, the company also sells other spirits such as Hpnotiq Liqueur and Pama Pomegranate Liqueur.
Heaven Hill Bourbon Whiskey
Heaven Hill Bourbon Whiskey is the company's very high-quality base bourbon, which is a delight both neat and in cocktails. Heaven Hill Bourbon Whiskey is very young and is stored for at least 4 years and a little longer. The nose reveals an intense rye aroma and sweet spiciness. On the palate it is spicy, light with a hint of wood. The aftertaste is warm and pleasant with a sugar/caramel note.

zum mixen
meiner meinung nach ein sauber produzierter Standard.Bourbon, der sich gut für Drinks eignet. ich habe gehört, dass er sogar dieses jahr bei der sommelier-em erkannt werden musste. ein gutes beispiel also wie bourbon schmecken muss. zum pur trinken ok, wobei es da natürlich bessere produkte gibt (makers mark etc.)

Dann will ich mich auch mal um eine Rezension bemühen. Ich bin leider kein großer Whiskykenner, trinke allerdings gerne Whisky. Den Heaven Hill habe ich als sehr mild und angenehm wahrgenommen mit viel Vanille im Abgang. Gefällt mir besser als die bekannten Bourbons aus dem Supermarkt
