OT-Bourbon drinkers?

[cavalot]

For those of us who are not intelligent drinkers...

Key Differences:​

Feature	Whiskey	Bourbon
Ingredients	Any grain	At least 51% corn
Origin	Global (Scotland, Ireland, etc.)	United States
Aging	Varies by type	New, charred oak barrels
Flavor	Wide range of flavors	Sweet, rich, caramelized notes
Legal Requirements	Depends on style	Strict U.S. laws regulate bourbon

Summary:​

All bourbon is whiskey, but not all whiskey is bourbon. Bourbon's distinct sweetness and specific production requirements set it apart as a unique and cherished style of whiskey.

Not really but I do rarely smoke a occasional cigar.

My experience is that smokers usually prefer scotch and ryes to bourbon. May be way off.

JMO but the type of cigar is the driver more than the type of whiskey. If it's a sweet cigar then I want a scotch or rye, but if it's an earthy or nutty flavor then I'd prefer to have it with a bourbon.

Swisher sweets are ghetto as fvck. Get you a good Cuban or a Macanudo. I buy these mini cigars dipped in cognac. Delicious after a meal.

No thanks. Gimme a little warm caramel chocolate brownie with a scoop of ice cream after my meals. Goes great with bourbon
