bourbon tasting
Sipping Kentucky spirits
Bourbon tasting is an event or activity where participants sample and evaluate different bourbon whiskeys, comparing their flavor profiles, aromas, and finishes.
These gatherings range from casual social occasions to formal guided sessions led by experts: We're hosting a bourbon tasting this weekend.
The term also describes the sensory practice itself—learning to identify notes of vanilla, caramel, oak, and spice in the spirit.
