About this deal

Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise. In 1979, 21 Brands (and the Ezra Brooks brand along with it) were acquired by the Medley Distilling Company, which moved production of the bourbon to their own distillery in Owensboro. Medley was acquired by Glenmore in 1988, itself acquired by United Distillers in 1991. United Distillers tossed Ezra Brooks to Heaven Hill like a hot potato the next year; just a year after that, Heaven Hill sold the brand to Luxco, then known as the David Sherman Company. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remainder of the Terms shall continue in full force and effect.

We are working with our overseas importers to bring Ezra Brooks 99 in the 750ml bottle to consumers worldwide. We are also looking to produce an Ezra Brooks 99 700ml bottle to help grow our distribution in Europe, from early 2022. The move to Bardstown, a name synonymous with bourbon, has only further cemented Ezra Brooks' place in the pantheon of great American whiskies. The brand's accessibility, both in terms of price point and its welcoming flavour profile, has made it a favourite among both seasoned whiskey enthusiasts and those new to the bourbon experience. Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. And since all bourbon is aged in charred oak, there is a hint of caramelized sugar as well. The toasted wood sugars really do influence the flavor of the bottle, depending on how long they’ve been aged. Flavors to Look For: Evan Williams also has several flavored and season options. The most common is Honey. But several others include apple, peach, fire, cider, and eggnog. General FlavorsAccording to our government, bourbon is whiskey made from majority corn. That means it can have other grains in its mash, but it must have at least 51% corn. This is why bourbon has a reputation for being sweet. Corn is a sweeter, heartier grain and it imparts that flavor to the whiskey. Especially if you put more than 51% into your mash, which is what many distillers do. (Some go up to 81% corn!) 3. Bourbon is stored in specific barrels… Ezra Brooks 99 Straight Rye Whiskey and Bourbon Cream will be released in the US later this month (May). We may, but are not under any obligation, to release new functionalities and tools or other features for the Service every now and then. Any new functionalities, tools and features shall be part of and governed by the Terms from the moment they are launched and/or available. Further, we reserve the right to modify, change, discontinue the Service, add or remove features, update the Service, change its appearance, temporarily and permanently, at any time, in whole or any part thereof.

I love that Wathen’s, I think it’s an absolutely brilliant, interesting and unique bourbon and this Ezra Brooks 99 Bourbon Whiskey comes across like a toned down, slightly more caramel-driven, version of that awesome whiskey. So if you’ve had any of those Wathen’s, and liked them, you’ll probably like this too – or vice versa. Though if you’re looking for the same-old Ezra Brooks taste… this ain’t it. In addition to launching Ezra Brooks 99, we introduced a new barrel‐programme offering for 2021, called Ezra Brooks Cask Strength Single Barrel. This cask strength, 120‐proof variant is available to retail partners who visit Lux Row Distillers to select a single barrel of Ezra Brooks. When buying bourbon, it’s important to keep in mind that not every bottle of bourbon you buy was actually distilled by the label it’s sold under. At the centre of this modern operation stands a striking 43-foot custom copper still. This imposing piece of distillation art is not only a testament to the craftsmanship that goes into every bottle of Ezra Brooks but also to the brand's commitment to maintaining the integrity of traditional bourbon-making methods.

At one time, Ezra Brooks had a 7-year age statement on the label, but it was subsequently removed. However, the liquid in the bottle does have the maturity that might indicate a whiskey with five or more years in the barrel. Dette giver den en sødere smag fra kornet og en mere krydret note, da der er blevet brugt rye (rug), og ikke wheat (hvede) som komplementerer de højere procenter alkohol meget godt, da det frembringer noget af den mere krydrede og komplekse smag. Distillation produces a white, clear alcohol* called “white dog.” White dog is then poured into barrels to age, develop, and gain more nuanced flavors.

Many connoisseurs feel that removing those compounds actually negatively changes the bourbon. But others feel the clearer and less-hazy liquid is actually a reason for purity. You’ll have to decide your opinion on your own. Bourbon aged less than 2 years must have its age labeled on the bottle, with the age labeled as the youngest bourbon used None of Ezra Brooks current line has any wheat included in their mash (and the barley levels are incredibly low), so you won’t find too many cereal or nutty grain flavors. This means they are generally less approachable, spicier, and hot. The top five flavors you’ll note:

But to give you a head start, let’s look at two of the most common and compare Ezra Brooks and Evan Williams. Main Differences Between Evan Williams vs Ezra Brooks A mash bill is the percentage of each grain that makes up the “mash” that eventually goes on to be distilled into bourbon. Bottling is the final step. While it seems obvious that the aged bourbon goes from the barrel into the bottle, there is an intermediary step for some bourbons. Those that go through charcoal filtering or the Lincoln County Process!

Palate with Water: The water really brings out green oak flavors and lowers some of the heat. I can taste mint and green grass much more strongly now. The orange makes an appearance with caramel and candied walnuts. Overall very sweet with less heat, pepper, and warmth. Nose with Water: More green, herbaceous hints come forward and definitely stronger citrus. A bit metallic, but still very sweet with lovely vanilla.

More Alternatives…

The 99 Rye drinkers will find the same great rye whiskey taste, but with enhanced flavour delivered by the higher proof. Similarly, our new Ezra Brooks Bourbon Cream delivers a bolder, richer expression of the Bourbon cream flavour our customers love.” Brought to us by Lux Row Distillers, “producers” (should that be “pushers?”) of the laughably overpriced Blood Oath series, the Ezra Brooks brand has a winding history reflective of the tumult and horse trading of the bourbon industry more generally. Thanks to Michael Veach and Brian Haara, among others, for the original research supporting the following summary: Definitely among my favorite “bottom shelf bourbons”. The aroma brings in plenty of dark fruit, sometimes coming through as dried blueberries, to compliment the slivers of oak; Palate is not as rich or deep as the aroma but still pleasant with more of a grain presence; Finish is a nice sweet fade. The oak presence increases as it opens. Bourbon is a strictly American spirit. America’s Native Spirit, in fact, according to Congress. In 1964 they decreed that Bourbon the drink most representative of America. Which makes sense as you’ll see below.
