Cookie Paul Reviewed at heavenhilldistillery.comReviewed at heavenhilldistillery.comPurchased at the Evan Williams store in Louisville. Love the flavor and smoothness. Haven't been able to find in any local stores in my area.
Brisco Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comDrinking this for decades. I hear it's being discontinued (?). I really really hope not. This is bar none the greatest bourbon for the modest price. It drinks better than most bourbons 3x the cost. It's cotton candy juice for grown ups. please E.W., don't discontinue!!!
On the Lake Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comI love this bourbon. However I'm disappointed it will no longer be available in Michigan.
MB Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comThis wonderful whiskey is no longer available in the continental united states except for one state. Should definitely bring it back to the rest of us to enjoy!
Scruffman Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comI drink this bourbon on the rocks, which to me really enhances the flavor. I buy it anytime I can find it.
Chris Reviewed at heavenhilldistillery.comReviewed at heavenhilldistillery.comI have enjoyed EW Single Barrel almost exusively for the past 18 years. I was a scotch drinker previously until I was introduced to this fine spirit at a VFW Bull and Oyster Roast in 2004. Even with the mania that has taken over Bourbon in the past 5-10 years, this has always been my go to. I just wish I had known about the distiller's intention to stop selling this outside of Kentucky in mid-2022... I would have filled my cabinet! Now I'm left scrounging for a suitable replacement.
DJ Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comMy favorite bourbon period. Other brands that cost much more do not compare. The aromas on the nose, and the robust and rich flavor, will always pick up a bottle wherever I see it.
J. Long Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comI only drink it straight in a brandy glass, anything else would be an abomination
Norm - NC Reviewed at evanwilliams.comReviewed at evanwilliams.comStarts with a beautiful copper color, very nice nose and the taste of a smooth old age bourbon. Excellent flavor and sweetness merge into a great sipping spirit, honestly love it straight up! Can't believe the price for the most excellent 7 y/o bourbon!!! Buy with confidence and make friends.
FAQs
Bourbon is a corn-based, aged spirit that, while legally can be produced anywhere in the U.S., is Kentucky’s signature liquor; in fact, Kentucky distilleries make 95% of the world’s bourbon and the Bluegrass State hosts over a million visitors annually for bourbon tasting tourism.
Because of the liquor’s aging process variation, bourbon’s colors range from light amber to dark caramel and each bottle must contain at least 40% ABV. Bourbon can only be called bourbon if it’s aged in an oak barrel; barrels must be new and are pre-charred to help the liquid extract as much flavor as possible from the wood.

Much like how a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square, bourbon is a whiskey — but because of the stricter standards set for bourbon distillers, most whiskies are not considered bourbons.
While both whiskey and bourbon are made from the same base ingredients (a predominantly corn mash, yeast and water), a spirit can only be called bourbon if it’s crafted in the United States, surpasses a minimum 40% ABV and is aged in new, charred, white oak barrels. Bourbons are generally on the younger side of the whiskey family (compared to older whiskies like scotch) and thus deliver a sweeter profile.

Bourbon’s ingredient list is short and sweet (literally): corn, other grains, water and yeast. Barley, wheat and rye grains are often featured in the mash composition alongside the liquor’s signature corn base, but even so, the FDA considers straight bourbon as a gluten-free product that is safe for those with Celiac Disease or for individuals who suffer from other forms of gluten intolerance.
Raise a glass to science: While rye, barley and wheat all contain the gluten protein, the actual gluten is removed during the bourbon’s distillation process, in which the gluten molecules are separated from the actual distillate used to make the final product.
