Straight up, on the rocks, or in classic cocktails, Americans love their bourbon. Interest in premium whiskies has soared in recent years, and the many new bottlings present mash lovers with
a world of difficult — and wonderful — decisions. Bourbon at Its Best is the most comprehensive guide to the drink available, with detailed descriptions of all the small-batch and
single-barrel bourbons on the market today. The book also chronicles the spirit’s history, from its rural “corn likker” origins to its new upper-shelf status, and offers a host of delightful
cocktail recipes, from the Old Fashioned to the newfangled.
